During this fascinating 2-Hour Walking Tour of Sugar Hill, you’ll get to see some of the neighborhood’s most notable examples of its famous architecture while learning about its history as the popular home of wealthy African Americans during the 1920’s. The neighborhood was home to prominent figures like Alexander Hamilton, Adam Clayton Powell Jr., Duke Ellington, and Cab Calloway, as well as rock n' roll legend Frankie Lymon and New York baseball player Willie Mays, and during this wonderful walking tour, you’ll get to see the distinctive rowhouses or impressive mansions where some of them once lived.
