"Shop Life"

The first new permanent exhibition to open at the Lower East Side Tenement Museum since 2008 showcases the array of local businesses that have occupied the historic tenement at 97 Orchard St. Visitors are led through re-creations of those shops, including a 19th-century beer saloon, a kosher butcher shop from the 1890s, a 1930s auction house and an undergarment shop from the 1970s.
