LGBTQ+ history & public action

Christopher Park and the surrounding streets recall the 1969 Stonewall uprising and the struggle for LGBTQ+ rights. A neighborhood-scale visit offers a strong setting for learning and reflection.

Before you go

The historic Stonewall Inn is a separate private business. Confirm visitor-center hours and guided-program arrangements.

Give the place time

Choose a manageable walk, viewpoint or tour, and allow time for interpretation. Gateway areas help orient the visit; they are not exact entrance directions.

Make the details easy

Confirm the specific facilities, walking surfaces and vehicle access your group needs. Tours, transport and special access may require separate arrangements.
