Underneath Bay Ridge

June 30th, 2o07 -

This set of photographs comes from a freight line running underneath Bay Ridge Brooklyn. Not only is this 130 year old train line a potential new superhighway through Brooklyn, it could also be instructive to the developers of the Atlantic Yards and the Hudson Yards. Above these still active tain tracks is a huge housing complex and private park, supported by a series of massive concrete pillars, bearing a strikingly similarity to plans for both the Hudson and Atlantic Yards.
