At least 15 gardens will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. for the 10th annual Brownstone Brooklyn Garden District’s Garden Walk.

Tickets, $20, at the Forest Floor, 659 Vanderbilt Avenue (Prospect Place), Prospect Heights; at the Brooklyn Academy of Music garden, Lafayette Avenue at St. Felix Street in Fort Greene; and at Tillie’s, DeKalb and Vanderbilt Avenues in Clinton Hill. Advance tickets, $15, and information: (718) 707-1277. There is no Web site.
NoLandGrab: By "endangered" they mean that the two gardens are on properties that are being condemned via eminent domain for the Atlantic Yards project.
