Tour | Walking in the Footsteps of New York's Founders
Ever since New York was founded, its strength and beauty have drawn people from around the world, seeking to be part of a truly spectacular city. Underneath this facade, however, is an interesting history revealing itself in small bits and overlooked hints. This walk will explore New York's history through the story of Battery Park, on Manhattan's southern tip. What were the forces that shaped the city, making it what it is today? The park holds clues to some of the pillars that the city stands on today, and character traits that were formed by the city's (and its dwellers) struggle for survival in its early years. Wear your comfy walking shoes as the group walks around the park, admires its monuments, takes a look at the bay, and continuse to Bowling Green and the Museum of Native Americans. Did anyone say Alexander Hamilton? He'll be there too! The walk is relatively slow paced. Dogs are NOT ALLOWED. Battery Park is accessible, considering some of the paths are dirt pathways. In any case, the guide will make it work for anyone who joins the tour!

Tour | Zoning and D[y]splacement: Frederick Douglass Boulevard in Central Harlem
This walking tour explores how a single rezoning plan transformed both an avenue and its surrounding streets in Harlem. The plan emerged from grassroots leadership operating under the direction of then Manhattan Borough President C. Virginia Fields, rather than from outside developers. As the group walks, it will examine how this initiative marked a significant break from the historical use of underdevelopment as a protective barrier against change, particularly notable because this new approach came from within the community’s own leadership. The tour highlights how community leaders chose to catalyze change by adopting new models to reimagine Harlem’s future. The tour covers approximately 12 blocks. The total walking distance is approximately 1.6 mile (2.6 km). Terrain and Mobility: All sidewalks along the route are paved and wheelchair accessible with curb cuts at intersections. The route is generally flat with slight inclines typical of Manhattan streets. Multiple benches and resting spots are available along the route. No public restrooms.
