How did a natural creek become a canal; how did it become one of the most polluted sites in New York City; and how is it, in spite of the pollution, becoming one of the hottest neighborhoods in which to reside? This tour will attempt to answer these questions, with a focus on the past, present, and future of Gowanus as told through its pedestrian bridges (and the Culver Viaduct), going south to north.
With the Carroll Street Bridge closed until further notice, tourgoers can enjoy the current edit to the tour, The Bridges of Gowanus: Rezone Remix!
(Approx. 90-120 minutes, $50 pp.)
