Free Cross-Brooklyn Shuttle


An email from Heart of Brooklyn:

This weekend (and every fourth Saturday) The Heart of Brooklyn Connection will make cultural loops from Prospect Heights to Williamsburg once again! Now that the weather's getting nicer, folks who want to visit the cultural attractions near Grand Army Plaza have a great and easy way to get there from Williamsburg on the fourth Saturday of every month.

The HOB Connection runs in a loop from 10am to 5pm, picks up along Bedford Ave. and at McCarren Park (routes/times are on our site), has tour guides and local information, and then delivers people free of charge to Brooklyn Botanic Garden, the Brooklyn Children's Museum, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Public Library (@ Grand Army Plaza and Flatbush Ave.) Prospect Park and the Prospect Park Zoo.

Next route times are
Saturday March 28
April 25
May 23
