Atlantic Avenue: The Heart of Brooklyn

Janes Walk

SOLD OUT

Led By Kelly Carroll, Atlantic Avenue BID

This in person walking tour of Atlantic Avenue will focus on the history of the street and the different immigrant cultures of the past and present that contribute to the street’s rich culture. We will explore the architecture of three historic districts along our route–including the best preserved wooden storefronts in New York City, learn about the histories of our several legacy businesses, and end in time for you to explore happy hour and dinner on Atlantic Avenue in one of our many delicious and diverse restaurants. Attendees should wear comfortable shoes.
