Bedford-Stuyvesant Historic District
Considered Brooklyn's largest African-American community, this historic area features twelve blocks of bay-fronted townhouses that look the same as they did in the late 19th century.

Peddlers and Parchment Escape
We are part of the global escape room phenomenon. But that's not nearly enough! We are a grassroots immersive museum of the amazing places where a family tree can lead! We bring to life the true story of Dr. Jeffrey Paull who discovered that some of the greatest sages such as the Shpoler Zaide (18th century), Rashi (11th century) and ultimately King David (9th century BCE) are all his ancestors! Our room packs a lot: cutting edge technology from international designers, genealogy, history, kindness and self-sacrifice.
