Janes Walk

Led By Majora Carter

We meet up and end at The Boogie Down Grind, a cafe-bar named Best in the City by TimeOutNY, and decorated from top to bottom with the signage and imagery from the birthplace of hip hop, with excellent coffees, teas, local beers and sangria on tap and delicious food.

Then it’s a short walk to Bronxlandia, the Cass Gilbert designed former rail station turned concert hall – still i transition and rough around the edges, but very cool.

From there we walk up the Manida St Historic Dist, pass by the Corpus Christi Dominican Monastery (oldest continually operated in N. America) on our way to the Rudy Bruner Award winning Hunts Point Riverside Park.

From there you are free t disperse or return to the Grind for refreshemnts and a bathroom. There are interesting people and public art all along the path.
