In 1913, there was a plan to build a Brooklyn version of the High Line that would have connected Bush Terminal, Brooklyn Army Terminal, LIRR 65th Street, New York Dock, 8th Ward Market, the Delaware Lackawanna & Western 25th Street Terminal, the State Barge Canal, and the Municipal Piers at 29th, 30th and 35th Streets. It was called the Brooklyn Marginal Railway.


From that Industrial railroad website:






Now, there were no plans to connect it to Jay Street, but that would have been fascinating to see.
