Breathe in the crisp air and soak in a bit of knowledge with a walk past the architectural wonders of Crown Heights North this weekend with a tour from the Municipal Art Society.
Developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the neighborhood contains such highlights as Doctor’s Row, Brower Park and Grant Square. Brownstoner columnist Suzanne Spellen (aka Montrose Morris) and Morgan Munsey, both preservationists, will lead walkers on an exploration of the standout apartment houses, mansions, row houses and houses of worship in the neighborhood.
The Municipal Art Society tour takes place on Saturday, December 15 from 2 to 4 p.m. — rain or shine. Tickets are $30 ($20 for members). For more information and to purchase tickets, click here.
