@nyc.unfiltered2: Som old New York streets still carry one of the city’s older layers. People often call them cobblestones, but many are Belgian block, stone paving that once helped shape the working streetscape of older neighborhoods. You can still spot them in parts of Brooklyn, especially places like DUMO and Vinegar Hill. Did you know they were called Belgian block? (Images were recreated, but the history is the story.) #BrooklynHistory #oldnewyork #NYCHistory #newyorkhistory #nycunfiltered
