I will lead this walking tour of the piers of the West Side to narrate the history of the shifting waterfront, the rise-and-fall of ocean-liners for transatlantic travel, and I will unravel the story of the events surrounding the sinking of the Greatest Ship in the World. My walk will be very comfortable, obviously, but dress shoes are discouraged. I will start along the Hudson River and work my way downtown along the waterfront and end at the Titanic-and-Lusitania memorials at Little Island. I will walk at a reasonable pace and will even pass a restroom.
