The Park Slope Civic Council's annual self-guided house tour is this Sunday. We took the tour in 2005, and it was well worth it. Like sneaking a peak into someone's window, only better.

Q to Church Avenue and walk three blocks (streets) west to Marlborough Road.

I'm going to provide the subway directions on my post as well.

Ah nice one DOS. I just saw the FG post on the June dates so will try and make this too. Hope to see y'all.

Note: FDC's subway directions are incorrect.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll fix it.

Dave: Looking forward to seeing you out and about that Sunday!

Note: FDC's subway directions are incorrect. Take the Q Train to Church Avenue instead of Beverly Road. The start of the tour is Temple Beth Emeth on the corner of Church Avenue and Marlborough Road. I contacted them and they're going to make the corrections on the material that hasn't already been printed.
