The abandoned Rockaway Beach Branch in Forest Park
Day 997
Tracks in the woods
September 22nd, 2014
I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
Who owns that property? The City?
Yep!
Where in the park is the access to it?
Just head over to the western edge of the eastern, forested section of Forest Park and you’ll see the old tracks running through the woods.
And I found them. It took me a while but I found them. And I went with the QueensWay people. They were rather pleased to note that you’d been there before and documented it. That part of the Park can now be reached by the Q23 from Forest Hills Subway Stop. Oh and it happened on 11/17/2018.
I’m planning a longer walking trip, instead of part of the way, a much longer one. The lead fellow sometimes goes a very long distance.
