Sheepshead Bay

An Early Summer Excursion to the Waterfront

With Francis Morrone

Once the preserve of racetracks and “sporting gentlemen” in the historic town of Gravesend, Sheepshead Bay boomed in the 1920s, and today packs many worlds into a small compass, ranging from the seeming New England fishing village along the bay, to streets of countless 20th-century houses and apartment buildings, to the city’s first Holocaust memorial. Join us for a walk through one of Brooklyn’s most surprising neighborhoods, with a detour into Manhattan Beach.
