Barbra Streisand inspires not only awe, but also an interest in history.

So last night while watching Hello Dolly! it finally dawned on me that they were in Union Square.

I didn’t recognize it so I became interested in historical pictures of the square. What's really neat is that Union Square's name has nothing to do with the Federal Union. It got its name because many trolley lines converged upon the area.







I also came across this website.

History is fun!
