Walking Tour: The Tredwells’ World of 19th Century Noho

Saturday, July 26, 2025

1:30 p.m.–3:00 p.m.

With the 1825 opening of the Erie Canal, the city’s economy boomed and wealthy merchant families escaped the increasing noise, congestion, and commercialization of the seaport area to move “uptown,” to what is now modern day NoHo, then an exclusive residential enclave. Join us as we explore the Tredwells’ elite neighborhood and discover what life was like for the wealthy merchant class in the mid-19th century. $20, FREE for Members. Reservations strongly recommended.

Walking tours are 90 minutes and meet in Manuel Plaza.
