Sunday, November 22, will be the last Brooklyn Navy Yard Bus Tour of the spring season. The tour, run by Urban Oyster in partnership with the Brooklyn Navy Yard Development Corporation and the Brooklyn Historical Society, includes stops where passengers get off the bus to get a closer look at some of the Navy Yard’s most intriguing sites, including a dry dock that’s been used since before the Civil War, the former Navy hospital campus that is virtually frozen in time, and the nation’s first multi-story LEED-certified industrial building. The tour will run from 1:30-4:00 pm, and advance ticket purchase is required ($30, or $25 for Brooklyn Historical Society members).
