A N.Y. Tour Traces
Jewish Immigrant Life

,,,,,,,,

Stk. #D1629

,,

rchard Street on a sunny
Sunday afternoon is a col-
orful swirl of activity.
Shoppers crowd the nar-
row street, stopping in stores sell-
ing all types of bargain clothing.
It's the same street where ven-
dors once sold their wares from
pushcarts and peddlers carried
their packs on their backs.
Evocative of the past, Orchard
Street is the starting point for an
unusual walking tour of the Low-
er East Side, a tour of the streets
that were the focus ofJewish im-
migrant life in New York City.
Titled "The Streets Where We
Lived", it is sponsored by the

the United States.
Formerly a Methodist church,
it was acquired and remodeled in
1885 by Russian immigrants who
came to New York fleeing the
pogroms in Russia, which began
in 1881.
At the corner of Broadway and
Jefferson, we stop in front of the
Educational Alliance, a settle-
ment house built in 1893 which
helped Americanize three gener-
ations ofJewish immigrants.
This is where Arthur Murray
learned to dance, sculptor Chaim
Gross studied art, and Eddie
Cantor polished his acting skills
in Alliance-sponsored plays.

TRAVEL

Lower East Tenement Museum.
With headquarters in an actual
tenement at 97 Orchard Street,
the museum offers exhibits, cul-
tural programs and walking
tours, all focused on the urban
immigrant experience.
Our tour takes along the nar-
row streets where many immi-
grant groups — Germans,
Italians, Irish, and especially
Jews — lived and worked as they
got their start in the New World.
By 1900, over 500,000 Jews were
living here.
"It was the largest Jewish city
in the world at the time," says Ed
O'Donnell, our tour guide.
He points out many sites that
are reminders of the dynamic
Jewish culture which flourished
here. For instance, at #60 Nor-
folk Street, we see Beth Hame-
drash Hagodol, the oldest
Russian Orthodox synagogue in

We also see Nathan Straus
Square, named for the wealthy
German Jewish philanthropist,
and the Wing Shoon restaurant
— formerly the Garden Cafete-
ria, where Jewish intellectuals
would gather and hold long de-
bates over cups of tea.
Also nearby we see a tall, state-
ly building towering over the
square. It is the former site of the
Jewish Daily Forward, the Yid-
dish daily which once sold
200,000 copies a day. But after
Jewish immigrants moved up-
town and the Forward moved out
of the property, it became a Chi-
nese Christian church.
That's why, on the same build-
ing where Yiddish words for For-
ward are etched, there are now
large Chinese letters on the right
side of the building, which spell
out: "Jesus is the light and the
way."
