The Atlantic Avenue Tunnel

Created to connect the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) to the rest of the rail system in Brooklyn. The tunnel was originally built in the 1840s as a means of transporting goods and passengers from the LIRR to the rest of Brooklyn, and was intended to bypass the congested surface streets of the city. The tunnel was also used by streetcars and subways, which operated in the tunnel until 1861. The tunnel was closed to subway service at that time and has been unused since then.
This was the last photo taken before the city shut down access to the tunnel in 2010.
