Ever wonder where jazz greats like Ella Fitzgerald and Milt Hinton went after giving incredible performances night after night? Well now you can find out when you sign up for The Queens Jazz Trail Walking Tour.
Just across the river lies Addisleigh Park, a Queens neighborhood that was once home to many famous jazz musicians including “The First Lady of Song,” “The Judge,” Fats Waller, Count Basie and Lena Horne, among others. The tour offers a look at the area’s jazz history and the lives of these iconic residents through the homes they once inhabited.
