Ever wonder what those naval insignia are all over those apartment buildings in Clinton Hill? We’ve got your answer! Also in our newsletter, we feature Earth Day harbor tours with Center for Architecture (AIANY) and Classic Harbor Line, the history of housing in World War II at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and the return of weekly tours at Prospect Park. We also highlight special events at the South Street Seaport Museum, Intrepid Museum, Battleship New Jersey, and the Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center, and a book talk Daniel Campo.

Learn how WWII changed Brooklyn housing, take a stroll in the park every Saturday, and cruise around Manhattan to learn about climate impacts. We also have special events from the Battleship New Jersey, Intrepid, the Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center, BLDG 92, and the Seaport Museum.
