We stumbled across this photograph of the bustling waterfront in southern Brooklyn circa 1926. Pictured here, from left, are the Army base, the Long Island Railroad yards and float bridges, and the Brooklyn Edison power house. The website, Life in Brooklyn, notes that at this point in time the Brooklyn waterfront was more prosperous than Manhattan’s, with hundreds of acres of dry docks and storage warehouses. No condos though.
