Dumbo's building stock is largely 19th- and early-20th-century industrial and warehouse buildings, many later converted into residential and commercial lofts by developer Two Trees Management. ## What DUMBO does to an appliance. The neighborhood's streets are paved in Belgian block, a holdover from its industrial waterfront days that can slow rolling equipment across a curb. A rail line called the Jay Street Connecting Railroad once ran through Dumbo's waterfront with spurs into several buildings, and its tracks are still visible embedded in some streets today.
