Discover the rich history of three iconic Manhattan squares—Gramercy Park, Union Square, and Madison Square Park—on this members-only walking tour. Learn who rests beneath the Worth Monument, see Manhattan’s only private and locked garden, and pass historic sites tied to figures like Theodore Roosevelt and O. Henry, who is believed to have written “Gift of the Magi” at Pete’s Tavern. You’ll also visit the original locations of early Madison Square Garden sites and walk along the once–fashionable Ladies’ Mile.
As you move through these distinct neighborhoods, you’ll uncover how each square evolved from quiet residential enclaves into vibrant centers for culture, commerce, and public gatherings. Along the way, you’ll encounter historic buildings, monuments, and streetscapes that reveal how these areas helped shape New York City's identity
