Brooklyn's ghost station


Cadman Plaza E & Red Cross Pl did exist until Friday, November 15. It must have been a busy station -- it made our NotSpot list three times during the first two weeks we conducted our surveys.

This is the site of the station. They're building something there called the "Protoype for Urban Post Disaster Interim Housing." Hope it will have WiFi.

The city's Office of Emergency Management is nearby which probably explains everything.
