Est-ce pour vous ?

Pour qui c'est

Maspeth and Queens locals and neighbourhood history fans walk 3.2 km over around two hours, from Mt Zion Cemetery to Maspeth Memorial Park, hearing about the Mespeatches tribe, old trolleys and once-busy bakeries and diners. Families can play too, with parents guiding children under 12. Anyone hoping for famous Manhattan sights or a live guide should look elsewhere, as this route runs past everyday churches, cemeteries and shops.

Quelques réponses avant de partir

Questions fréquemment posées

What is Maspeth, NY known for in its history?
Maspeth was once a busy, well-populated town with trolleys for getting around, bakeries and diners that drew plenty of attention, and links to many historical figures. The walk begins at the site associated with the Mespeatches Native American tribe and covers what the area used to be before society moved on.
Where does the walk start and finish?
It starts at Mt Zion Cemetery, the home of the Mespeatches Native American tribe, and finishes at Maspeth Memorial Park. Along the way you pass Frank Principe Park, St Stanislaus Roman Catholic Church, the Maspeth Sign, Mount Olivet Cemetery and Maspeth Methodist Church. It is not a loop.
How long does it take and how far is it?
Most players take around two hours, including walking and solving the puzzles at each stop. The route covers about 3.2 km. You can pause the game whenever you like and pick it up again later, so there is no need to finish in one go.
Is it suitable for kids?
Yes, families can play together, but children under 12 should be guided by their parents through the stories and puzzles. Keep in mind the route is about 3.2 km on foot and takes around two hours, so younger children may need a break partway through.
Is it free, and do we need to book a time?
It is free to play, and no attraction tickets are needed for any of the stops. There is no group to join and no guide to meet, so you can start whenever suits you, play with friends or family, and pause to continue later.
