Walk with us though the WOOD! Deanwood that is! Join us on this special guided walking tour of the Deanwood Heritage Trail!!

The boundaries of Deanwood vary - depending upon what generation of Deanwoodian you ask. Come explore a few of the historically significant parts of this neighborhood tucked just inside the city’s eastern border. Learn about the only amusement park ever to be housed within the boundaries of the District, the green space, as well as the entrepreneurial, self-sufficient men, women, and families who have called this part of the city home for generations. Meet at the Minnesota Avenue Metro station, Minnesota Avenue exit, at the top of the escalator End at Deanwood Metro station.

 

Presented by Cultural Tourism DC and led by Chair of the Deanwood History Committee, and Kia Chatmon
