Gary gave us an insightful, historical, and entertaining tour of the Brooklyn Bridge. The stories and facts resonated throughout our visit to New York - and they made other sites, plaques, place names more meaningful. The DUMBO portion of the tour was fascinating - newer history of the repurposing an urban area as the city grows. We highly recommend this tour and Gary’s good company and great knowledge. In fact, we are giving this tour as a wedding gift!
