Flashback Friday to 1949 with a fantastic photo of Flashback Friday to 1949 with a fantastic photo of former Turtle Bay resident, Katharine Hepburn near her home at 244 East 49th Street. 

The screen legend called Turtle Bay Gardens home from 1931 until the mid-90’s. When the TBA was formed in 1957, Ms. Hepburn joined immediately and was involved in actions from preserving the neighborhood’s trees to protecting mid-blocks from high-rise construction.

In 1997, the Katharine Hepburn Garden in Dag Hammarskjöld Plaza was dedicated to pay tribute to her lifelong love of flowers and gardening and as a token of gratitude for her commitment to the park and the neighborhood. The intersection of Second Avenue and East 49th Street was renamed Katharine Hepburn Place after her death in 2003. 

While we do not know the photographer’s name to credit the source properly, please note that we obtained this 1949 photo from @citizenscreen
