Three Ways of Looking at Park Slope: Park Slope Northwest
Sunday, November 15, 2:00 PM

Join the Municipal Art Society (MAS) for the first of three tours (others to follow in 2010) looking at different areas of Park Slope and aspects of the neighborhood’s history. The first walk looks at Park Slope’s western edge and its relation to the Gowanus Canal. We will discuss the history of the canal and its bridges, cross over for a brief peek at Carroll Gardens, and return to touch down in the Park Slope Historic District. Leader: Francis Morrone, architectural historian. Meet in front of the Old Stone House in J.J. Byrne Park, just off 3rd St. between Fourth and Fifth avenues. $15, $10 MAS members. Reservations and prepayment recommended.
