19 Field Trip March 11, 2019

Group left NYEA shortly after 12:00 pm and headed right for the 2/3 line at Wall St. to Borough Hall in Brooklyn. Once we arrived, we walked a few blocks away to find the old Court Street subway entrance, which happens to be the site of the New York Transit Museum, located at Schermerhorn Street and Boerum Place.

Inside, we checked out the gift shop, then explored the entire main floor, which exhibits past NYC transit memorabilia, subway advertisements, videos, historical photos and objects, as well as MTA buses. Afterwards, we made our way downstairs to the main attraction, which houses different subway cars of two separate tracks. Each car is unique from a different decade in history, giving one the feel of traveling back in time.

After taking many photos of our surroundings and enjoying everything the museum had to offer, we decided to leave.
