Cobble Hill And Carroll Gardens Walking Tours With 'Lost City' Blogger

Friend and fellow blogger Brooks Of Sheffield over at 'Lost City,' recently hosted a walking tour of Carroll Gardens West. The walk was such a success that Brooks decided to add a tour of Cobble Hill on December 13th and one of Carroll Gardens Proper on December 20th. Both start at 11 AM.

According to Brooks, he
"will not be relating the history you find in books (well, maybe a little), but leaning toward hidden history, forgotten incidents, eccentric facts, as well as focusing on elements of the living past as much as possible."

The tours are about 90 minutes to 2 hours long, the cost is $20. They will be limited to about 15 people each, so book early.

Given Brooks' love of history and local lore, I am sure that his tours are quite fascinating. (I am hoping to attend the one of Carroll Gardens.)

For further details, go to Brooks' site, Lost City and make a reservation by contacting him at lostcitybrooks at gmail dot com.
