This walking tour takes you behind the magic of one of the most famous neighborhoods in New York City.

We'll stroll down Broadway with its provocative past, enter one of New York's most elegant parks, and visit a landmark that was nearly demolished.

We'll check out the work of an amorous architect whose lust cost him his life.

You'll learn about a wily billionaire who enriched himself at the UN's expense.

And we'll hear of a Broadway producer who incorporated dramatic odors into his plays.

This walking tour answers some of the big questions about New York.

Do chorus girls really marry millionaires? Can diplomats get away with murder? Why does the city celebrate the New Year by dropping a lighted ball?

Come along with us to find out these answers and more.

The tour meets at 2 p.m. every day but Tuesday and during scheduled breaks (Sept. 14-22, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day) on the northeast corner of 8th Avenue and 42nd Street. No reservations needed. Show up rain or shine. No one is turned away. Tours cost just $20 cash per walker.
