What we’re about
We are local explorers that venture into our own backyard...the Five Boroughs of New York City. We will visit historical landmarks, forgotten places, well-known places and go off the beaten path. If you love urban exploration or were just curious to see what was in your own town, this group is for you!
Membership is free and all is welcome!
Looking for Borough experts, Assistant Organizers and Event Organizers!
Find us on Facebook! Get information on happenings around the city, recommendations on books, shows, restaurants, etc., ideas and updates on upcoming events. All are welcome to post your ideas and photos!

*TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT - https://dljparty.ticketleap.com/grand-central-murder-mystery--scavenger-hunt/dates/ (*Our events are co-organized by multiple groups so don't pay attention to RSVPs. These events are well attended.
Join us for a fun, social adventure at our Grand Central Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. You don’t need any special skills for this activity. Get ready to have a good time making new friends and solving a mystery. Plus, you'll find out things about Grand Central you never knew before!
How It Works:
- When you arrive we will put you on teams - if you don’t already have one (90% of those attending will not have a team).
- Each team will be given a list of clues and 75 minutes to head to Grand Central to try and uncover the mystery of Mary’s demise. The team with the most points wins.
- Once everyone is back we'll safely socialize where you can share your experiences with the others.
The Theme:
Meet Up Mary is a regular on the social circuit in New York. You'd probably know her if you've been out before. She was very personable, friendly and bubbly! Unfortunately Mary met a horrific end at Grand Central and the police need you help to solve her case! Join us for this fun and educational night where you will get to explore every corner of the NYC Landmark in ways that you never have before! (If you have participated in our other Grand Central Hunts no worries as this is a completely different experience)FAQs:
