Reserve A Space For One Of The Final Wallabout Historic Walking Tours

Update: July 19’s tour has sold out, so be sure to catch a tour on August 16 or September 20!

Earlier: Another Wallabout Historic Walking Tour is coming up this Saturday, July 19! The 11am event, which leads attendees on a 1.5 mile journey through Fort Greene Park and the historic district to the north, is being held every third Saturday this summer until September. Via the Myrtle Avenue Partnership:

The neighborhood, most of which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as historic district, has a beautiful mix of pre-Civil War homes and late 19th century industrial buildings. The walk will discuss how the neighborhood has developed since the Dutch first arrived in the early 1600’s and highlight notable residents, such as Walt Whitman.

These events are presented by the MAP in conjunction with the Fort Greene Park Conservancy and The Walt Whitman Project. Tours are totally free, but space is limited–so reserve your spot before someone else does.
