A trolley car rolls below the old Myrtle-Wyckoff station.The tour is postponed until further notice due to weather.
He’s at it again! Local historian Adam Schwartz will lead a walking tour through central Bushwick this Saturday, Oct. 17 at 11 a.m. and he invites everyone to come along for a journey back into the days when trolleys rumbled down our streets.
The tour will begin at Myrtle-Wyckoff subway station and venture towards Broadway, passing the newest firehouse in the city, Hope Gardens, St. Barbara’s Catholic Church and the Bushwick-Linden Garden along the way.
