マンハッタンのミッドタウンを巡るこの 2 時間半のウォーキングツアーでは、ホールドアウトの魅力的な物語を実際に見て、語ってもらいます。ホールドアウトとは、マンハッタンのプレッシャーのかかる不動産業界の興味深い副作用です。不動産所有者 (または賃借人) がデベロッパーに売却することを拒否し、デベロッパーに計画の修正を強い、街の街並みを永遠に変えてしまったのです。他の家を知らない老婦人、ポーカープレイヤーのような大家が手札をオーバープレイした、または長期賃貸契約で (当然ながら) 予算を破る金額を要求されたレストラン経営者などの物語は、これらの取引の異常に人間味を加えています。また、そうでなければ忘れ去られていた個人的な物語は、後に残る永久的な印象によって驚くほど増幅されます。高層ビルの計画の悪い入り口、奇妙な形の建物、オフィスタワーの 20 階建ての高さの切り込みは、私たちが目にする 16 のホールドアウトの例のほんの一部です。

このツアーは、Alpern と Durst の著書「Holdouts!」に基づいています。

We love history and architecture and selected this tour because it sounded a bit quirky from typical tours. It was fantastic! Rob is so enthusiastic and knowledgeble. We really enjoyed this tour- we kept pointing to other possible "holdouts" during the rest of our time in New York! We'll definitely take one of Rob's other tours next time we're in the city!
Very educational tour and the guide was happy to modify to address our interests.

This is a walking tour so be aware. That said I am elderly and the guide was happy to find sitting spots during the tour. Very knowledgeable guid who combined architecture with general history of the city. Plenty of old pictures and graphs. Also, we were interested in churches so the tour was modified to spend more time there.
See NYC from then to now!

We really enjoyed the tour! Our guide was fantastic— extremely knowledgeable and friendly and very attentive to what the group might be interested in or need, etc. It’s a lot of walking (3 hours) but very enjoyable!

Nice tour, a bit rushed, no time for photos or question, but interesting none the less. I learned about the Privately Owned Public Places which was helpful information that I shared with a young traveler visiting New York after me. My only suggestion would be to move quicker through the beginning of the tour where we sat and looked a printer copy of buildings. We could have done that during the tour and allowed for photo, questions, and a slower pace to enjoy the city scape.

Rob is a fountain of enthusiasm and information- he knows more about NYC architecture and history than anyone I have ever met- and he loves constantly reading and learning. Anyone doing this tour will be rewarded and realize just how lucky they are- highly recommended!
Unique angle on NYC, guided by a master

Who knew? Maybe you’ve seen a small building crammed between two skyscrapers and wondered what went wrong. In fact, these “ holdout” owners and buildings have unique histories and often, powerful purposes. For example, have you ever heard of a “lightsaver?” Not the candy, a short building that doesn’t block the sunlight of the apartments on the side of a very tall structure. Or the charm and pride of small businesses built by families who don’t want to give them up. The stories are many and all interesting. Rob Amell’s meticulous research has uncovered their histories and secrets, and the trip is worth it! This tour is not for first time visitors to our City but for those from NYC and away who love the uniqueness of our town. Rob is a master and he should write books about is work. His tours are 3 hours but zoom by. Highly recommend.
