We will start at the historic Montauk Club and learn about the development of the neighborhood known as Park Slope. We'll walk down Brooklyn's famed treelined streets and see why those Brownstones became so popular. You'll learn about a tragic plane crash that occurred on a snowy day in December 1960 that up until 9/11 was the worst disaster in American aviation history. Then we'll stop by the wonderful authentic Brooklyn Pizza, Antonio's on Flatbush Avenue to relax for a bit. On this tour you'll definitely get a feel for why Brooklyn has been known as "the borough of churches". We'll observe Victorian architecture and learn about the men (the Litchfields) who created this place, now one of the most sought after neighborhoods in New York, but it wasn't always. We'll end at the Williamsburg Bank Building, across from Atlantic Terminal, which for generations was the tallest and most beloved building in Brooklyn.
