Nature Walk in New York City
Saturday, February 2nd
1 - 3 pm Nature Walk/Historic Tour of Central Park Tour Guide: Bob Gelber is a New Yorker born and bred. He is a licensed NYC tour guide and "Big Apple Greeter" volunteering for the City of New York offering greets to visiting tourists from all over the world. Additionally, he volunteers at the Metropolitan Museum of Art escorting visiting dignitaries throughout the museum. In his spare time he creates tours of New York City for the public (Walkin' New York - Walking tours of New York City). Formally, for over 30 years, he was a law librarian for the New York State Court System. Meet in front of the "Golden" Statue of General Sherman at 59th Street, across from the Plaza Hotel, and stroll through Central Park while learning about the history of New York City's greatest "work of art." We will discuss why this man-made wonder was created and who was instrumental in convincing the City that a park was needed. Along the way we'll pass through Literary Walk, Bethesda Terrace and learn what significant event in New York City history the "Angel of the Fountain" commemorates. On our way to Belvedere Castle we'll pass through the "Ramble" and view a fascinating geological phenomenon. Admission is $10 Please rsvp: nybirdclub@yahoo.com New York Bird Club |
