Join us for an exploration of the research, preservation, and restoration work that goes into every Tenement Museum tour. Learn about Jewish immigrants Harris and Jennie Levine as they ran a small factory and raised five children in this rapidly growing Jewish neighborhood, and how women in tenements formed community and managed conflict.
Visit the Levine’s recreated tenement home, discover how we learned about the family, and get a special look at the unique process of reconstructing their 1902 apartment and what we’ve learned from 30 years of working in ‘ordinary’ buildings.
