Iconoclast Alice Austen captured her world with a keen photographer’s eye. Ahead of her time, Austen started taking pictures at only ten years old. Lucky for us, she never stopped. In fact, she took about 8,000 pictures all over the world. Before her death, Life Magazine declared Alice, “America’s first great woman photographer”.

But there’s much more to Alice Austen’s life. It’s a story of deep, everlasting love. There’s sports mastery, a privileged upbringing, and tragic loss. Austen was brilliant, complex, and unforgettable.

A moving bronze sculpture, The Immigrants tells a story. Through this tale sculptor Luis Sanguino showcases the diversity of New York City. There’s unity in the piece. That’s because it portrays the universal desperation of longing to be free.

We can all relate to that. But the sculpture also brings specificity to the narrative. Each figure reveals their own passionate version. We can feel their journey and what it means to finally arrive.

American History resonates throughout Fraunces Tavern. Sons of Liberty plotted our Revolutionary War. Then at its end, George Washington bid his troops farewell here. In fact, our leader gave this brief speech in the very Long Room shown in my video below. There’s no other place like this in the world.

Downstairs remains a tavern. Come get a drink or lunch. John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson all ate here. So, you’ll be in historically fantastic company.

The initial American Lefferts in the family was a first namer, Leffert Pietersen Van Haughwout. He arrived here on the Spotted Cow ship in 1660. The journey took seventy days across the Atlantic. Thank goodness he made it and then proceeded to marry and have 14 children. Brooklyn’s better off thanks to them.

The prominent Lefferts family continue to influence Brooklyn today. That’s thanks to their family storyteller, Gertrude. Her books and stories give us a better picture of Brooklyn history. It’s not just Gertrude’s writing that helped the borough. There’s the incredible Lefferts family farmhouse, a gem within Prospect Park. It sits on the park’s edge. So, you can see it passing by on Flatbush Avenue. But this landmark house still technically lies within the park.
