The United States Navy Yard, also known as the Brooklyn Navy Yard and the New York Naval Shipyard (NYNS), was a shipyard located in Brooklyn, New York, 1.7 miles (2.7 km) east of the Battery on the East River in Wallabout Basin, a semicircular bend of the river across from Corlear's Hook in Manhattan.
To get to the Navy Yard via public transportation today, commuters can take the Broad Street Line to AT&T station and transfer to the Route 71 Navy Yard Shuttle. But with one bus every 20 minutes and Navy Yard employees coming and going at various times of the day, that is not always convenient. Ridership on Route 71 has proved low, and as of November 30 SEPTA will discontinue the service.
