abc wednesday —T is for "trolley tracks"

Not a lot of cobblestone streets left around here—
and you definitely won't find a lot of trolley tracks.
This is Dumbo, and that's the Manhattan Bridge up ahead.

    I love this place, with these tracks and cobblestone, and with the beautiful Manhattan Bridge. Great spot at dusk for a beautiful sunset on Manhattan, isn't it?

    Tracks show up underneath the cobblestone, and occasionally the pavement in Albany, NY.

    Before reading your text, I made guesses to know where this great shot was taken and I had all wrong!
    Never thought it might come from NYC!!
    I DO have to go back! So much to see.

    Just love cobble stone streets. This is just a very eye appealing picture.

    "Dumbo." I seem to remember that this means "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Something," but what does the "o" stand for?
