Few views of Brooklyn's wholesale food trade are as useful as a site map, since it shows how the market's buildings, rail spurs, and street access were arranged on the waterfront. The Brooklyn Terminal Market was a large distribution hub where produce and other food arrived by rail, truck, and ship, then was sold to city retailers and dealers. Maps like this one let viewers see how the market fit into the working harbor and rail network around it. Look closely at how the layout handled the flow of goods, from unloading to storage to sale.
