A walking tour along the East River Esplanade.
Attendees should dress for the weather (it’s windy on the Esplanade) and wear comfortable walking shoes.
From movies to books, bridges to boats, discover the surprising stories hiding along our waterfront.
What do Annie, Spider-Man, a historic shot tower, and even trash have to do with the East River Esplanade?
Join us for a lively walk filled with quirky anecdotes, neighborhood lore, and a few real historical facts. You’ll never look at the waterfront the same way again.
