Eyes on Brooklyn Heights

Janes Walk

Led By Sandy Ikeda

The beautiful and historic neighborhood of Brooklyn Heights, where Jane Jacobs once live, offers excellent examples of Jacobs’s principles of urban diversity in action. Beginning at the steps of Brooklyn¹s Borough Hall, we will stroll through residential and commercial streets while observing and talking about how the physical environment influences social activity and even economic and cultural development, both for good and for ill. We will be stopping at several points.

Please bring water and wear comfortable shoes!
