What was the first city bus? How did people get around in cities before busses and trains? How tall did the mountains of horse poop have to before they said “enough already!?” Project Manager and NYC Transit History Buff Zach Bloom takes Laika and Albie through the surprisingly crazy history of busses!
Zach received his master‘s in urban planning from Hunter College, where he spent tons of time nerding out about transportation planning and the history of transit in New York City. He currently works as a Senior Project Manager at the Port Authority of NY & NJ.
