Visit the Lower East Side With The Forward
On June 10, the Newsroom Society will go on a walking tour of the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Conducted by the president of the Forward, Sam Norich, the tour will hit the highlights of this historical neighborhood with so much resonance for the Jewish American community and for the Forward in particular.
We will visit the Forward building and other edifices that have survived into the 21st century, as well as visiting sites that have succumbed to progress only to be brought to life by Norich’s vivid descriptions.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
