This tour of Brooklyn heads across the Brooklyn Bridge to explore the social, political, and cultural contexts of NYC's most populous (and trendiest) borough. After walking the bridge, we'll spend much of our time in Brooklyn Heights, contemplating its original role as respite from Manhattan Island while navigating its lush, tree-lined streets. After, we'll work our way to DUMBO, whose converted warehouses—now office spaces, trendy cafés, and high-end restaurants—show another side of Brooklyn's development.
