What: A hulking facility that helped usher in history is now part of a look back into the borough’s past. A non-profit whose mission is to help New Yorkers appreciate the beauty and history of their surroundings, is reintroducing the Brooklyn Army Terminal to those who don’t know about the giant building that once launched army supplies — and Elvis Presley — overseas. Brooklynites will also get special to access to other borough landmarks including Green-Wood Cemetery, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
When: October 6, 2012 | 11am – 5pm
