Turnstile Tours and Prospect Park Alliance host a virtual exploration of Prospect Park’s waterways, looking closely at the ingenious drainage system and chain of manmade streams and ponds that terminate in Brooklyn’s largest lake.

Follow the park’s scenic watercourse, and go inside one of the most unique features of the park: the 1869 Wellhouse, the park’s last remaining building by park designer Calvert Vaux, which once housed the machinery that fueled the watercourse and was recently restored by the Prospect Park Alliance and converted into the first composting restrooms in a NYC park.

Advance registration is required.
