This little bus loop sits near the western end of 39th Street at the terminus of the B35 and B70 lines. Its light fixtures appear to be mounted on old trolley utility poles, presumably vestiges of the trolley line that once terminated here and connected to a ferry service that departed for Manhattan from the foot of 39th Street.
When this stretch of rail was active (it's only been out of service since 2006 or so), trains would pass through the corner of Bush Terminal Building 20 (at right) as they turned from 2nd Avenue onto 41st Street.

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!
