New York Transit Museum
 
 


The New York Transit Museum is completely dedicated to mass transit, and houses collections relating to the history of public transportation in the New York metropolitan region. Located in a decommissioned 1936 subway station in Downtown Brooklyn, the Transit Museum is closed for a 15-month period, during which it is being completely renovated.

LearningTimes is working with the Museum to design and configure a state-of-the-art classroom for children’s workshops and a new resource and computer center. LearningTimes is also designing and implementing an exciting web-based strategy for the Museum, which involves unique educational activities, and projects that will actively involve the New York City community at large, and communities well beyond New York.

The centerpiece of the Museum's web presence will be the Transit Museum Education "Community Crossing" site.

The online community will provide an accessible online resource of educational information and activities for teachers and their students prior to Museum visits. It will also act as a home for collaborative virtual exhibitions, and enable learners beyond the traditional reach of the Museum, to learn about the collections and themes that the Museum’s mission aims to preserve and teach.
