features many older residences and mansions dating back to the early
1880's. The trail is mostly on sidewalks and the rails-to-trails path. You
will also stroll along the waterfront and, if the day is clear, you will
be able to view lower Manhattan, the Verrazano Bridge and most likely many
sailboats cruising the waters. |
