Description:
Discover Staten Island’s three Historic Districts. The Saint George-New Brighton Historic District, the New York City Farm Colony-Seaview Hospital Historic District, and the Saint Paul’s Avenue-Stapleton Heights Historic District will all be featured. Why were they chosen? What types of architecture can be seen? Which famous and influential people have resided at these locations? What Staten Island history secrets do these areas hold? All will be discussed as we look at and celebrate these landmarked locations.
