- Free
Summary
This walk focuses on the oft-understudied history of Brooklyn's water supply during its time as an independent city. Unlike New York City pre-consolidation, Brooklyn couldn't go north for its water (though it tried, kinda — we'll get into it). Instead, they went east, through what is now Queens and Nassau Counties all the way out to Massapequa. This walk will include stops key to the development of those sources of supply, and what came later as Brooklyn grew and, eventually, became one of the five boroughs.
