BPC North Neighborhood Walking Tour 3

The third of the Museum's three thematic walking tours of Battery Park City, on Thursday, August 8 at 4pm, will cover the north residential neighborhood, which was developed in several phases, beginning with Stuyvesant High School at the northeast edge and the esplanade and Rockefeller Park along the Hudson. A diagonal avenue lined with apartment buildings creates one face of the neighborhood, while the inner courts of the large blocks are connected by the delightful Teardrop Park. Located two blocks from ground zero, we will also explore the history and design of the Irish Hunger Memorial completed in 2001. Tour 3 will be repeated on August 16 at 4pm.

This tour will meet at the Winter Garden at Brookfield Place. Our Walking Tours are free! Reservation priority is given to Skyscraper Museum Members and to Corporate Members and their employees. Members can register by emailing programs@skyscraper.org.
