Welcome to The Bowery (and Albert's Garden)
((please remember urban caching requires stealth))
I absolutely love urban caching, especially ones where you have to rely on your geosense, which is a great thing in NYC!
Stop and take a moment to enjoy NYC! NO NEED TO ENTER ALBERT'S GARDEN! (There is no need to mess with the nearby fire hydrant)
Happy Caching!
ps - I love it when gecoaches teach me something so this is for those kindred spirits:
THE BOWERY
The Bowery neighborhood, located in Lower Manhattan, has a long and storied history. Originally home to the Lenape Native Americans, the area was settled by the Dutch in the 17th century. As the years passed, the neighborhood became known for its rowdy taverns, theaters, and dance halls, earning a reputation as a rough and tumble entertainment district. In the late 19th century, The Bowery became home to a large population of newly arrived immigrants, particularly the Irish and the Chinese. By mid-20th century, gentrification efforts threatened the area's character and many historic buildings were lost. Today, The Bowery has seen a renewed interest, with luxury high-rises and trendy bars and restaurants now coexisting alongside the neighborhood's historic landmarks and social services for those in need.
