By the late Victorian Era and into the 20th century, the Upper West Side and Harlem had developed at a rapid pace, becoming home to a variety of working class, well-to-do, and wealthy families. But, as it happens, not all of these residents were upstanding members of society. Walk through the neighborhood and hear tales of the most mischievous residents and their ill-deeds, from run-of-the-mill affairs of the heart to truly bizarre and scandalous crimes. Enjoy sensational stories about members of two prominent Colonial families, a pre-WWI murder, the very public affair of a newspaper titan and his showgirl, a creepy “May/December” romance, and an infamous self-made brothel keeper who catered to mobsters.
