Free Holiday-Themed Walking Tour Through Flatiron District

The Flatiron/23rd Street Partnership provides free, year-round historic walking tours of the district every Sunday, led by professional guides. On December 5, 12, and 19, the Flatiron Partnership will hold special holiday-themed walking tours to complement the annual “23 Days of Flatiron Cheer” programming. During this special holiday tour, attendees will learn about the Star of Hope, the first public Christmas tree, the international toy and gift center, and Dr. Clement Clarke Moore writing his famous Christmas poem "A Visit From St. Nicholas" (commonly known as “The Night Before Christmas”) in his country home on 23rd Street in 1822. Tours start at 11:00 a.m. at the tip of the Flatiron building at 23rd Street just east of Fifth Avenue. No advance registration is required.
