Battery Park City Tour: The South Neighborhood — REPEAT
The South Neighborhood tour will explore Battery Park City's southern district, which is home to the Skyscraper Museum and includes some of BPC's earliest landscapes and infrastructure, including the residential enclaves built in the 1990s that followed the 1979 Cooper Eckstut Master Plan. Starting in the Museum's gallery to see historic views of the waterfront, the tour will visit South Cove and the green spaces that connect to the Esplanade, the first waterfront park in New York since the Brooklyn Heights Esplanade in 1951. The tour will end at the beautiful, recently reopened Wagner Park, a major infrastructure and public-space project of the BPC Authority’s resiliency plans, the first complete section of the Hudson River side of the Lower Manhattan Coastal Resiliency Project.
This tour will meet in The Skyscraper Museum at 39 Battery Place. Registration for each tour is limited to 25 people. Any updates for bad-weather cancellations will be sent to your email address.
Walking tours are free! Programs are supported by a Community Partnership with the Battery Park City Authority.
