Our Peopling of New York Seminar looked at the issue of immigration in New York City through the lens of food and food ways.  Each group focused on a particular neighborhood, researching the local history and culture by collecting both qualitative and quantitive data.  We also produced menus featuring typical, culturally appropriate foods for each neighborhood based on our research.  Take a look at our neighborhood websites to learn more!
