Noah Sheidlower's piece about NYC's first subway is fascinating - a pneumatic tunnel below Broadway that used air pressure to transport passengers in the 1870s. New York experimented with this technology decades before the current subway system.. Amazing to imagine passengers being whooshed through a tunnel by compressed air. #NYC #subway #history #transportation #pneumatic #innovation #broadway #untappedny https://www.untappedcities.com/nycs-first-subway-a-one-block-pneumatic-tunnel-below-broadway/?ref=daily-newsletter
