Brooklyn Navy Yard Tours with Urban Oyster

Posted in: News

In partnership with the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation and the Brooklyn Historical Society, Urban Oyster leads bus and bicycle tours replete with fascinating stories of the Brooklyn Navy Yard’s past, present, and future. During this overview tour, we stop to get a closer look at the Yard’s most intriguing sites, including a dry dock that’s been used since before the Civil War, the 20-acre former Navy hospital campus that is virtually frozen in time, the first solar and wind-powered street lamps, NYC’s first building-mounted wind turbines, adaptively reused historic structures, and the nation’s first multi-story LEED-certified industrial building.

Tours run on Sunday afternoons and are 2 hours long. Advanced Reservation Required – Buy tickets and see schedule at www.urbanoyster.com

$30/person
