A walking tour across the Brooklyn Bridge and into the city's first landmark district.

Our Brooklyn Bridge walking tour takes us across the landmark while we recount the dramatic story of how it was built and its significance in New York/Brooklyn and American history. Then we stroll the tree-lined streets of the Heights, exploring the rich architectural, social and literary history.

Stops could include Abolitionist Henry Ward Beecher’s Plymouth Church, many exquisite examples of 19th century brownstone architecture, and sites associated with Walt Whitman, Truman Capote, Arthur Miller as well as Emily, John and Washington Roebling. The Brooklyn walking tour concludes on the Promenade on Brooklyn Heights with a spectacular view of downtown Manhattan and the Harbor.
