These series of photographs were taken the same day that the trolley was removed from the public view in 2013.

I saw this happening, in astonishment, in front of my eyes through my window artist loft, in Red Hook, Brooklyn, where I resided for the period two years photographing the area. I ran downstairs with my camera and documented the removal, it was a cold February day in 2013.

It is uncertain the destination where it was shipped to or whether it had been turned into scrap.
