Take a Hike: Stroll Series tour

Explore the history and evolution of historic Old Brooklyn, where each building and street corner tells a story of the past. Just as layers of rock reveal the Earth’s history, the neighborhood’s evolution unfolds in the gradual accumulation of cultural, architectural, and social changes. From early settlements to modern developments, each phase has added a distinct layer, and every turn offers a glimpse into how the past continues to shape the present.
