Just south of Bedford-Stuyvesant is the beautiful neighborhood of Crown Heights. The Crown Heights North Association (CHNA), in celebration of becoming the 79th historic district in the city, will hold the inaugural Crown Heights North Walking Tour this Sunday, June 10th. The tour will highlight some of the fine architecture and beautiful blocks that caused the LPC to choose Crown Heights North for this honor.

Time: Meet at 12:45. The tour will leave promptly at 1:00 pm.
Subway Directions: 3 train to Nostrand Ave. Walk down Eastern Parkway 2 blocks to Brooklyn Ave, turn left to St. Gregory’s beautiful campanile bell tower.
Cost: Admission is $20, which includes the tour, as well as a Garden Tea, featuring light fare, international iced teas and other beverages. The Garden Tea will be held at the Community Garden at Bergen and Nostrand Avenue.
