Walking Tour of Hamilton Heights

with Andrew Dolkart

Friday, October 21, 3–5pm

EPICureans have had the pleasure of listening to Andrew Dolkart’s fascinating presentations at our Tuesday Talks. Now you have the opportunity to join him on this captivating walk. Columbia Professor Andrew Dolkart will lead a tour of Hamilton Heights, one of the city’s most beautiful and least well-known residential districts. The tour will explore the City College campus, and discuss Alexander Hamilton’s “Grange,” several important churches, and some of the most beautiful row house blocks in New York City.

The tour will meet at the entrance of City College

at Amsterdam Avenue and West 139th Street.
