Reviews
"Nice park, but bad area. Don't get caught slipping. The undesirables come out at day & night. Lol!"
"Great guide. Interesting stop and good value."
"Nice park on the Grand Concourse. Home of the Edgar Allen Po Cottage"
"Thanks to Oreshi for hosting their annual Veterans Day event!"
"If you like history and/or American Literature and/or poetry, it's pretty cool to see the house where Edgar Allen Poe lived, and by extension how the Bronx must have looked in the 1800s. They were doing renovations when we were there in June 2021, so we didn't get to go into the little museum or get close to the house. There's also a playground nearby for kids!"
