Our guide Doug was terrific. His environmental and architectural knowledge of the park and how it was initially built and then evolved over the years made this a very special tour. What a perfect way to spend an outdoor, socially distant morning during the pandemic! Extra bonus: we visited a red oak tree in the park planted by a women in our tour group in honor of her father.

As a 40-year Brooklyn resident, I thought I was pretty familiar with all the nooks and crannies of Prospect Park – well, not at all, as I found out yesterday on Turnstile Tour’s “hidden treasures of Prospect Park” walk. The level of information presented was perfect – not too much, not too little, all of it fascinating. I learned so much I didn’t know and saw places that were a revelation to me, all in my own backyard! I would recommend this tour for locals and visitors alike.

I took a tour of the history of Prospect Park yesterday and the guide was very informative. It was a beautiful day to wander into parts of the park I have never seen before and to learn some interesting history of how the park was designed and changed.
