I chose the Brooklyn Navy Yard as my topic for essay 3. You can see Brooklyn overlapping around the perimeter of the BNY. Some streets are very old and have bricks instead of cement, just like the old times. You can see the overlap after the projects but before the BNY red walls. I also saw a lot of older building structures beyond the projects.
