Our Brooklyn Tour:
What a great way to see Brooklyn. We start at the Brooklyn Navy Yard before heading into Fort Green Brooklyn to see Fort Green Park and talk about the American Revolutionary War. We head into Clinton Hill, Prospect Heights and Downtown Brooklyn before crossing into “South Brooklyn”. We take you through Prospect Park and into one of the most desired places to live, Park Slope to see French Renaissance buildings and some of the first mansions built. We cross the Gowanus Canal into Carrol Gardens for lunch before making the journey into Red Hook, once regarded the most dangerous neighborhood in the US. (Learn how Brooklyn is changing!) With fantastic waterfront views of the Statue of Liberty behind us, we go into Cobble Hill and back into “North Brooklyn” to visit the original court houses and Brooklyn’s “City Hall”. We take you into the first historically preserved neighborhood in NYC, Brooklyn Heights to take in churches and tree-lined street named after many shipping merchants and founders of Brooklyn. We go through the newly developed Brooklyn Bridge Park for great pictures of the East River and Manhattan. The tour ends in DUMBO under the Brooklyn Bridge before going back through the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
Plus Our North Brooklyn Tour:
We start at the Brooklyn Navy Yard and head along the waterfront into South Williamsburg, home to the largest Jewish Community in the US, before going into some of the hippest Brooklyn Neighborhoods, North Williamsburg and Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Cocktail stops are possible or some of the best coffee in NYC. Visit Domino Sugar Park, see MacCarren Park, and see how Brooklyn’s transformation post zoning law changes in 2005 made these neighborhoods a reality.
