On April 23rd, Nilka Martell of Loving The Bronx will be conducting a 5k walking tour through the South Bronx inspired by Baz Luhrman’s Netflix original series, The Get Down.
According to Nilka,
“We will visit some of the places where scenes were filmed, discuss the history and future plans for the Bronx, share personal experiences and meet pioneer of hip hop Grandmaster Melle Mel.
Please note the route is over the 5k distance, approximately 3.8 miles. Please wear comfortable shoes and attire.
We will be meeting at St. Mary’s Park, the northern entrance on East 149th Street and St. Ann’s Ave, Bronx, New York.
Water will be provided at the end of the tour.”
