New York's Brutal Back Alley Slums (Double Alley in the 1800s)

The back alleys of 1800s New York were dark, dangerous and overcrowded. The filthy Fourth Ward of Lower Manhattan was a working class district which, in the late 1800s, turned out more criminals than all the rest of the city together. You will discover some incredible characters that lived in the horribly crowded and dirty tenements found in these alleys. This is the story of the people condemned to live a brutal life in New York's back alleys. 📣 JOIN to support the channel as a Member:    / @factfeast   👍 Support the channel (donations): Send a Super Thanks on the video page or https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/FactF...
