• IMPORTANT: If you are using GPS or an online mapping service to find BLDG 92, enter “Flushing Ave and Carlton Ave, Brooklyn, NY” and not the street address, as there is only one address for the entire 300-acre Yard. Do not enter “63 Flushing Ave” or just “Brooklyn Navy Yard,” as you will end up in the wrong location.

• Do not attempt to enter the Brooklyn Navy Yard through any of the other security entrances, as you will be turned away. There is no public parking inside the gates of the Navy Yard, with the exception of individuals with a handicapped parking sticker.

• If you plan on taking the subway, the closest stops are York Street (F) and High St (A/C). Alternative transportation options, as well as driving, biking, or ferry directions are here.

• Driving Directions: The Brooklyn Navy Yard is accessible from the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (I-278), either via the exits for Tillary St (exit 29B), Flushing Ave (exit 30 eastbound), or Wythe Ave/Kent Ave (exit 31 westbound).

• Street parking is available adjacent to BLDG 92, or there is a free municipal parking lot one block south of BLDG 92 along Park Ave, underneath the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.

• If you get turned around for any reason, please call Turnstile Tours at (347) 903-8687.
