Discover the New York story behind one of the 20th century’s most complex figures. This guided walking tour explores how J. Robert Oppenheimer’s years on the Upper West Side shaped his ideas, ambitions, and the world-changing science that followed. Walk through the neighborhoods, institutions, and meeting places where intellectual debate, politics, and innovation converged during the New Deal and wartime eras. Learn how the city’s energy, ideals, and contradictions influenced the man often called the “father of the atomic bomb.”

About New York

New York riunisce grattacieli, musei celebri, teatri di Broadway e decine di quartieri distinti in cinque distretti che pulsano giorno e notte.

Manhattan è la classica prima tappa. Times Square brilla sopra il quartiere dei teatri, Central Park si allunga per isolati tra l'Upper East Side e l'Upper West Side, e l'Empire State Building, il Chrysler Building e il Rockefeller Center definiscono lo skyline di Midtown. A sud, il 9/11 Memorial, Wall Street e il ponte di Brooklyn sono vicini l'uno all'altro, e i battelli passano davanti alla Statua della Libertà fino a Ellis Island.

Top-ranked sights in New York: Statue of Liberty, Central Park, National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
