IPOD Tours Give You A Local's Perspective

(From The Hartford Courant/The Washington Post -- By Anne McDonough)

Comedian JAMI GONG says he's waiting for me at the luncheonette on the corner of Canal and Eldridge streets.
Born and raised in New York's Chinatown, Gong promises me an insider's look at a neighborhood where it's hard to get beneath the superficial. "These are my blocks," he says as we get started, "my streets, my people."

I'm seeing Chinatown through his eyes because his voice is coming through my headphones.

Gong is just one of 13 New Yorkers whose tours of individual neighborhoods are yours for the listening through SOUNDWALK, either by going online and downloading them onto an iPod or buying them in CD form.
