In the summer of 1854, the Brooklyn City Railroad opened four separate streetcar lines. The lines were introduced here several years before they were brought to larger cities, such as Baltimore, Boston, and Philadelphia, demonstrating the cityas modernization and ingenuity. From its first introduction, Brooklyn had one of the nationas largest urban transit systems.

The street railway blended mobility with innovation, prompting one-third of New York Cityas population to call Brooklyn home.
