I’ve always been curious about the Atlantic Avenue Tunnel (the world’s oldest subway tunnel, rediscovered in the 80s). Now, Open House New York and the Brooklyn Historic Railway Association are hosting a special guided tour and happy hour on November 22nd.

Months ago, last year even? Dan and I would walk by and see a whole bunch of people lined up on Atlantic Avenue, and we had no idea where they were going. Just a line! We puzzled over it, but didn’t ask.
Then one day we saw that people were climbing down a manhole. Couldn’t tell you how bizarre we thought that was!
Now I know what it has all been about. Thank you!
Dan will be grateful too!
COME!!! Brooklyn would love to have you.
My husband and I did that a few years ago. So cool to climb down a manhole and here all the stories about what may or may not have happened down there. (and such an odd feeling to know you are underneath Atlantic Avenue with streams of traffic flying over you!)
This is so cool!!!
This is such a cool idea! I so wish I could go.
