SOUTH BRONX HISTORIC TOUR: In 1997, The Bronx was designated an “All American City� by the National Civic League, signifying a huge comeback from the terrible decline of the 70's and the 80's. The anticipated revival has brought converted lofts, new affordable apartments and great restaurants. Bruckner Boulevard, once defined as industrial is changing rapidly giving us a great opportunity to learn about the history and cultural movement of the Mott Haven and Port Morris area, the past, the present and the future. www.bronxhistoricaltours.com
