Itinerario

1. 1

   New York City West Village

   From the apartment where John Lennon and Yoko Ono established the country of Nutopia, to the townhouse where mother of The Sex Pistols’ Sid Vicious lovingly administered his fatal overdose, this West Village walking tour sheds light on the artists, authors and activists who transformed the area into “America’s Left Bank.”

   Roosevelt Island

   Starting outside the Church of St. Luke in the Fields in Greenwich Village, you’ll wind your way through the West Village to the Jane Hotel where, in 1912, survivors of the Titanic gathered for a memorial. Along the way, you’ll pass several bars, pubs and speakeasies and learn how Greenwich Village had more places serving alcohol during prohibition than before or afterwards.

   White Horse Tavern

   You’ll see the church where Timothy Leary infamously handed out LSD instead of communion wafers, and Whitehorse Tavern where poet Dylan Thomas drank himself to death. I’ll also point out the apartment building where the cast of Friends lived. Or, rather, the building where they would have lived if the show wasn’t filmed in California.
