The Delancy Trolley Station is located in New York City alongside the tracks at the Delancey/Essex subway station. This abandoned trolley station operated from 1904/1908 to 1948. The tracks below are still embedded in the floor and there are wooden channels in the ceiling protecting the trolley wires from any contact with the steel structure. This area is proposed to become “the Lowline.”

In the past, ice yachting was a popular sport along the Hudson River. Occasionally the Hudson River freezes over enough that ice yachts can be again brought out. Several local people own amazing vintage ice yachts!
Ausable Chasm is located in the Adirondacks of New York State. US Route 9 is the main road that crosses the chasm, but formerly the road used was located slightly east of US 9. The bridge over this road, Old State Road, is still present, but closed to traffic.
From the south side of the old bridge, one can see stone ruins along the chasm. I am unsure of the history of these ruins. If you know anything, please contact me!

The Brockway Brick Beach is located in Fishkill along the eastern shores of the Hudson River. A brick manufacturing facility was formerly located in the area. Bricks now found along the shore were discarded during brick operations.
