A lively 150-year-old Bavarian tavern still stands near the neighborhood’s former general store, hotel, and worker homes. They are just down the street from an ornate mansion built by Balthasar Kreischer, the founder of a brick making empire that mined its clay from the banks of Tappen’s Creek.Join artist, photographer, and journalist Nathan Kensinger on a walk through the streets of this secluded village and out into the serene woodlands of Clay Pit Ponds State Park, where we will hike along the mining pits on the shores of Tappen’s Creek.Sturdy, closed-toed shoes are recommended for this 2.5 mile walk, which will involve following footpaths over streams and through wooded environments. We will start at Arthur K*ll Road and Tiller Court, and end the walk at Storer Avenue and Carlin Street.This event is part of a series of NYC H2O walks led by Nathan Kensinger, exploring how creeks, oysters, industry, and immigration helped to shape Staten Island's historic neighborhoods.This walking tour is sponsored by Council Member Frank Morano. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/staten-island/tappen’s-creek-and-kreischerville-walking-tour/100001985455681390 - **Event Categories**: Art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Staten Island - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Arthur Kill Rd at Tiller Ct - **lat**: 40.53204849999999 - **long**: -74.2395294 - **full address**: Arthur Kill Rd at Tiller Ct, 4553 Arthur Kill Rd, Staten Island, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/ef2a7ea3754c56287bef9509741165c04029dace65afff024ce40070d4e224f2-rimg-w1200-h801-dc49461d-gmir.jpg?v=1773871551 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour being held? - **A:** Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour takes place on Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 12:00 pm to Sat, 18 Apr, 2026 at 03:00 pm at Arthur Kill Rd at Tiller Ct, 4553 Arthur Kill Rd, Staten Island, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour? - **A:** Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour is organized by NYC H2O. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/ef2a7ea3754c56287bef9509741165c04029dace65afff024ce40070d4e224f2-rimg-w1200-h801-dc49461d-gmir.jpg?v=1773871551", "startDate": "2026-04-18T12:00:00-04:00", "endDate": "2026-04-18T15:00:00-04:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/staten-island/tappen’s-creek-and-kreischerville-walking-tour/100001985455681390", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Arthur Kill Rd at Tiller Ct", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "4553 Arthur Kill Rd", "postalCode": "10309", "addressLocality": "Staten Island", "addressRegion": "NY", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "40.53204849999999", "longitude": "-74.2395294" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Join Nathan Kensinger for a walking tour of Tappen’s Creek and Kreischerville!", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-03-18", "availabilityEnds": "2026-04-18T15:00:00-04:00", "validFrom": "2026-03-18", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/staten-island/tappen’s-creek-and-kreischerville-walking-tour/100001985455681390" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-03-18", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-03-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/staten-island/tappen’s-creek-and-kreischerville-walking-tour/100001985455681390", "price": 0, "name": "Tappen's Creek and Kreischerville Walking Tour" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-03-18", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-03-18", "url": "https://allevents.in/staten-island/tappen’s-creek-and-kreischerville-walking-tour/100001985455681390", "price": 0, "name": "I Support NYC H2O" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "NYC H2O", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/nyc-h2o/22556489", "description": "NYC H2O’s mission is to inspire and educate New Yorkers of all ages to learn about, enjoy and protect their city’s local water ecology.
