Frederick Douglass's New Bedford

A walk through the block where a fugitive from slavery became Frederick Douglass

This is where New Bedford worked out what kind of place it wanted to be. Five stops over 0.4 miles, about 48 minutes of walking. Each one starts talking the moment you reach it, so you can keep your eyes on the street instead of a screen.

Of the five MassRoam tours in New Bedford, this is the heritage one. There is no start time to make — walk it in one go, or leave the rest for another afternoon.
