The Bushman steps in New York City are an almost lost artifact from baseball history. Circa 1912, this stairwell took people from the subway to the ticket booths of The Polo Grounds. Just west of Coogan's Bluff in Sugar Hill Harlem or modern day Washington Heights, Manhattan. New York Giants baseball fans would proceed to descend the cliff via the John T. Brush Stairway.[1] which is now closed due to neglect.[2]
The New York Parks Dept does not know who the name Bushman refers to[3]
