Come off the grid and meander the alleys, mews, and cobblestone streets of this one-of-a-kind neighborhood. We’ll talk about the history of Washington Square Park and its environs, learn how Buddy Holly, Charles Lindbergh, and Thomas Paine figure in to this area. We’ll visit some small and charming enclaves as we head to the Jefferson Market Courthouse and a cemetery along the way. There is so much to see and learn, I hope you will join me. Bring your camera and sense of adventure.
