This morning, we made our way downtown to commence a tour over the Brooklyn Bridge and into the neighbourhood of DUMBO (Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass). The tour was quite good and gave lots of history of the Brooklyn Bridge and the DUMBO neighbourhood. There were some great views from the historic Brooklyn Bridge as well as some great views of the bridge itself from DUMBO.
After the tour, we decided to head over to the New York Transit Museum
. We walked through Brooklyn Heights in order to get there. It's quite a nice neighbourhood with a lot of older buildings. The New York Transit Museum had some train cars on display from different eras and there was a guided tour that gave a history of the New York subway. The museum was okay, but didn't have a large variety of exhibits.
