The website Urban Archive launched a new map today with historical photos with many of North Brooklyn’s days of yore.
An Android and desktop-friendly feature to the new map— along with the ios app — makes the content accessible on all devices with an internet connection. The images are sourced from archives from the NY Public Library, the NY Transit Museum, and other public archives.
