The Bowery is New York's oldest street. Stretching 1.25 miles from Chatham Square to Cooper Square, it was a Native American footpath,Dutch wagon road, and the triumphal march route as Washington's troops expelled the British.
It is particularly fascinating for us, as The Ukrainian Museum is located right in this neighborhood. The images in this book come from dozens of libraries, archives, museums,photographers,and collections all over. David Mulkins is a retired history and cinema studies teacher,president of the Bowery Alliance of Neighbors,and the editor/contributing write for the book Windows on the Bowery:400 Years on NYC's Oldest Street.
