[In-person tour] Spanning just 40 blocks, Carroll Gardens was originally considered part of Red Hook until real estate developers renamed the area in the 1960s. Today the neighborhood retains much of its character from its days as a refuge for Italian and Norwegian immigrants, while growing deep roots as a community for French expats. On this tour, we’ll visit important sites that are emblematic of the neighborhood’s character, from wide gardens and Hobbit doors, to the social clubs and bakeries that tell the story of its residents. We’ll even visit a famed mobster’s wedding venue.
In-person tours are limited to 25 attendees and are held outdoors. Walking tours bring individuals into close proximity with each other, we therefore recommend that all tour goers wear masks during the tours, regardless of vaccination status. Your tour guide and your fellow tour participants will thank you for your cooperation. Should the tours happen to venture indoors, many places require masks and/or proof of vaccination, so please be prepared to have both with you.
MAS Walking Tours last approximately 2 hours. Meeting location is provided with registration.
