Brooklyn Heights is one of the most historic and beautiful neighborhoods in all of New York City. Come enjoy this introductory tour of the neighborhood, with stops including the outside of the infamous former Hotel St. George; the scoop on one of most highly regarded private schools in the country, St. Ann’s; the commercial center of the neighborhood, Montague Street; sites from the famous lives of Truman Capote, Arthur Miller, and Henry Ward Beecher; and ending at the Promenade with one of the best views in the city, where we’ll talk about the building of the Brooklyn Bridge, a story of adventure, ambition, and ultimately, feminine triumph and a bridge that has become the most beloved in the world.
