In 1849 Ezekiel Porter Belden wrote the following:
“On an autumn day, in the year 1609, a strange sight appeared to the Indians that crowded the shores of Manhattan.It was the bark of Henry Hudson, then in the employ of the Dutch East India Company, who, on a voyage in search of a north-west passage to the Indies, had entered, on the 3d of September, the southern waters of New-York.”
You could even say that Antwerp was part of NY’s growth.
About 2 million migrants started their journey with the Red Star Line.
Much has changed since.
NYC is more than Manhattan only. Harlem is really worth a walk, so is Chelsea. Brooklyn is a creative melting pot and gives you a stunning view on the island.
Some of our October walks were inspired by beNY.
