This page is for the discussion and creation of a 'Walking Tour' of Manhattan (and areas) for fans of Mark Helprin's book 'Winters Tale'.

The book is primarily set in Manhattan at the turn of the 20th century, and then again at the turn of the 21st century.

Locations and areas of interest (both real and fiction)

  • Five Points (formerly real)
  • Printing House Square (fictional, but might it be approximated?)
    • Location of the original New York Sun
  • Bridges (esp those built before 1900)
    • Williamsburg Bridge
    • Brooklyn Bridge
  • Bowery
  • Palisades
  • Chelsea
  • Ellis Island
  • Grand Central Station
  • Upper West Side (location of the Penn mansion)
  • The Battery
  • Hell Gate
  • Bayonne (related to Bayonne marshes?)
