Sunset Park Neighborhood
Brooklyn, as we know it today, was sometimes different. South Brooklyn, a central area extending to the former Brooklyn city line near Green-Wood Cemetery's southern border, was initially inhabited by the Canarsee, one of the indigenous Lenape peoples who farmed and hunted on the land. The Canarsee had several routes that crossed Brooklyn, including a path from Fulton Ferry along the East River that extended southward to Gowanus Creek, South Brooklyn (present-day Sunset Park), and Bay Ridge. They traded with other indigenous peoples and, by the early 17th century, also with Dutch and English settlers, marking a significant chapter in the area's history.
Sunset Park
Sunset Park is a true gem of New York, offering unique experiences. Nestled in the eponymous Brooklyn neighborhood, this park is renowned for its awe-inspiring panorama. From its highest point, you can feast your eyes on the Statue of Liberty, the vibrant neighborhoods of Brooklyn, and the lush hills of Staten Island and New Jersey. The park itself is a diverse landscape, featuring a modern swimming pool, verdant fields, pedestrian walkways, a sand volleyball court, a recreation center, and a living memorial to honor the events of September 11th.
Sunset Park and its pool are a haven for swimmers and sun worshippers during summer. The pool, designed in a neoclassical/Art Deco style, opened its waters to the public in 1936. Since then, it has been a hub of recreational activities for the Sunset Park community and visitors from all across New York City. The range of programs offered Is diverse, catering to all ages and interests. From Learn-to-Swim classes to lap swims for adults, there's something for everyone to enjoy.
Industry City
Founded by Bush Terminal Company head Irving T. Bush in the early 20th century, Bush Terminal was the first facility of its kind in New York City and the largest multi-tenant industrial property in the United States. The warehouses were built between 1892 and 1910, the railroad from 1896 to 1915, and the factory lofts between 1905 and 1925.[2] During World War I, Bush Terminal was used as a United States Navy base and returned to private ownership after the war. At its peak, Bush Terminal covered 200 acres (81 hectares), bounded by Gowanus Bay to the west and north, Third Avenue to the east, 27th Street to the north, and 50th Street to the south.
The entire complex was initially called Bush Terminal and formerly stretched further north to 28th Street.[10] The section north of 32nd Street, comprising the former Naval Fleet Supply Base, is no longer part of the Bush Terminal. One of the buildings between 29th and 31st Street, Federal Building No. 2, is a privately owned shopping complex called Liberty View Industrial Plaza.[11] It was bought by Salman Properties in 2011; before that, it had been vacant since 2000.[13] The site of the other structure, Federal Building No. 1, is occupied by the Metropolitan Detention Center, Brooklyn (MDC Brooklyn), which was built in the 1990s. Federal Building No. 1 was demolished in 1993 to make way for MDC Brooklyn.
