This weekend – late Friday evening, April 18 to early Monday morning, April 21 – will mostly be a repeat of last weekend. There will be no service at the 4/5 platforms at Borough Hall as 4 trains will originate and terminate at Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall and 5 trains do not serve Brooklyn on weekends. Those traveling to or from the East Side of Manhattan can transfer between 4 trains and N or R trains, which should be running normally, at Canal Street.

Last Saturday Bargemusic began its spring season in its new quarters, the Brooklyn Bridge Park Boathouse, located just north of the Pier 5 uplands, most easily reached form the Park’s Joralemon Street entrance. It’s a splendid space, with capacity for a sizeable audience, wonderful acoustics, and a stunning view of the Park and harbor. Bargemusic’s Musical Director Mark Peskanov led off the program with a lovely rendition of a Bach solo violin sonata.
