Bushwick is home to hundreds of historic locations, each with its own rich story, from the earliest Dutch colonists of the 17th century to massive breweries founded by immigrant families. Urban Archive, available for download on iOS, is an immersive app that taps into thousands of archival images from city cultural institutions and provides historical information about places that are a part of our daily lives. The nonprofit project began in 2016.
