The Friends of Greenwich Library will take in the sights of New York City's most diverse borough, Brooklyn, on Thursday, May 13. The trip, the Friends' second tour of Kings County, will venture into new sections of Brooklyn.
See the history and culture of Brooklyn's many diverse old neighborhoods including Chinatown, Boro Park and the Victorian neighborhood of Prospect Heights. Take a walk on the Coney Island Boardwalk, and eat lunch and shop in the heart of Brighton Beach. The tour, which will make stops at the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens and the Brooklyn Museum, offers the opportunity to experience a variety of architectural styles and spectacular harbor views.
The bus leaves the Greenwich Library parking lot at 8:30 a.m. and returns at approximately 5:30 p.m. Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable walking shoes. The cost of the trip is $85 for Friends and $90 for guests and includes.
