Civil War New York Walking Tour: Fort Totten
Ice-age glaciers, Native Americans, Dutch traders, British Redcoats, and the Underground Railroad have all left their mark on New York City. Their stories can be found in the names of our streets, our architecture, and our parks. Urban Park Rangers specialize in interpretation of historic turning points, both natural and man-made, in our citys long history. Fans of military history can explore our citys role in various conflicts at Brooklyns Fort Greene Park and Queens Fort Totten Park. Architecture and the history of the Hudson River are explained at Manhattans Little Red Lighthouse and Highbridge Park. Native American culture is celebrated in special programs and lectures throughout the five boroughs and park history programs tell the story of your favorite parks from the past to their future.Certain popular programs have limited space and require registration.
