The Brooklyn–Battery Tunnel connects the borough of Brooklyn on Long island to Manhattan, and was officially named after former New York Governor Hugh Carey in December 2010. The tunnel opened to traffic on May 25, 1950 after nearly ten years of construction which was started on October 28, 1940 by the New York City Tunnel Authority. The massive storm Sandy on Tuesday October 30 2012 hit New York City (the worst storm in over 180 years in New York City) and many parts of the eastern United States with epic flooding and extensive power outages.
