This New York City Museum brings to life the stories of immigrants who lived at 97 Orchard Street, a tenement built in 1863 on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. I especially enjoyed the Virtual Tour and the Immigation Game in the PLAY section. Hope to visit some day.

I have added a tenement from my family tree to www.historyofhomes.net
