Overview

Your guide, Eric Ferrara, is founder of the Lower East Side History Project, a 7-time published author and native New Yorker whose family goes back four generations in Little Italy.

He is also the founder of the former Museum of the American Gangster, the Lower East Side Welcome Center and East Village Visitor Center. Eric has worked as a consultant on several movie & tv projects including History Channel, Netflix's The Irishman, HBO's Boardwalk Empire, AMC's Making of the Mob, and Warner Brothers' new Great Gatsby. His books include Manhattan Mafia Guide.

Ferrara has consulted several law enforcement agencies and crime victims as well as families and estates of many of the mafia figures discussed on the tour. These unique first-hand accounts, combined with 150 years of community insight and over two decades of active research, makes this excursion a one-of-a-kind experience for fans and aficionados alike.

This is no Wikipedia tour. This is 150 years of insight from the inside.
