Nowhere else in NYC is so much history, culture, and activity packed into such a tiny urban footprint. During this compact, comfortable stroll, we’ll learn about New York’s first dog run; the memorial to the greatest disaster in NYC before 9/11; the annual Charlie Parker Jazz Festival; the American birth of Hare Krishna, and the open space where live rock meets punk rock meets salsa meets drag. We’ll drop by monuments to statesmen and soldiers, and see birders, ballers, skateboarders and more. We’ll even find out about the mystery man who lends the Tompkins name to this vibrant little corner of New York.
Bring eyes, ears, and perhaps a camera to capture the City in microcosm. Rain or shine! Led by Robin McMillan.
