This is not a "ghoulish" or ghost hunting group but is for people who are interested in the history and architecture of cemeteries in the 5 boroughs, Long Island, and the Hudson Valley. If members like, we could venture farther afield at some point.

This is a group for people either new to New York City, or have called the city home for awhile and are interested in discovering new neighborhoods and learning more about the city's fascinating history, architecture and culture. I started this group because I am a native New Yorker and have a successful dual career as a professional tour guide and real estate agent. I love to introduce people to new neighborhoods and explore their past, present and future and also welcome the opportunity to lea …

We are the most active cyclo-centric multi-sport group in the tri-state area.  We also love food. We believe in and encourage four-season cycling as the healthiest way to commute and be in tune with the best our region has to offer.  Every ride will include a food stop or several, as well as varying cultural, historical, or natural destinations. We also hike, climb, backpack, camp, and enjoy water and winter sports with equal enthusiasm and vigor.  If you happen to love to do all these things, y …

Our group explores various neighborhoods in New York's five boroughs. The focus is on culture (monuments, historic landmarks, religious buildings), food and drink, recreation (museums, parks), and some shopping (markets, unique stores). We usually stroll through a  neighborhood, taking in the vibe and checking out locations of interest, before eating at a local restaurant. The first four neighborhoods we visited were the Lower East Side, Astoria, Central Harlem, and the Financial District.

If you’re looking for something interesting and fun to do in your free time – either a reason for getting away, or if you just want to explore the area with others, this group will provide you with some great offerings. We’ll visit museums, galleries, music festivals, and art festivals. There will be excursions to New York City for museum group tours, as well as visits to local arts organizations and sculpture parks throughout Westchester, Fairfield and beyond. We will visit the beautiful homes …

Did you know it was native son Washington Irving who first dubbed New York City “Gotham”, a century before a certain superhero and his crime-ridden hometown were even thought of? Yes, Gotham is our city, our hometown, whether by birth or adoption! So let’s see the sites that make Gotham aka New York City so unique in the world. We go to exhibits and concerts at museums and unusual venues in the city, some famous, like the Metropolitan Museum, and others a little more off the beaten track, like t …

I decided to start this group to expand horizons outside of just Manhattan. At least Once a month we wiil tour a different neighborhood of the five boros. Anyone can join.

Open to those working as docents, guides and historic interpreters, environmental educators and site managers in the Hudson River Valley. Each month, a different site has the opportunity to play host to meet up members with special tours designed to cross train and cultivate marketing efforts and enhance networking from other local institutions supporting the historic past and exciting future of the Hudson River valley.

This is a group for everyone who wants to creatively enrich their experience of New York's spaces and places. Rather than having individual tour guides lead us around NYC's neighborhoods, we will experiment with more interactive ways of enriching our encounters with the city. These can include creating artwork inspired by our walks, randomizing the routes we take, adopting fictional and historical personas, discussing our intellectual and emotional responses to a neighborhood, and many other tec …
