Step into one of the most pivotal moments of the American Revolutionary War as we retrace George Washington’s daring overnight escape from Brooklyn in 1776. Beginning at Borough Hall and ending at the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, this walking tour brings the Battle of Brooklyn to life through the streets where it unfolded. Along the way, we’ll explore how a near-defeat turned into a strategic retreat that helped save the Continental Army, and ultimately the American cause.
