A little History (2)


Our house is a two story wood frame house, with an apartment upstairs, a main floor, and a basement below. The records are a little vague, but it looks like it was built around 1915, and almost every house on our block was built before 1924. 

To take a look at what the house was like when we first saw it, check out the complete photo album: click here

Our neighborhood is a section of Brooklyn that real estate agents are calling Greenwood Heights, which really means that it is a part of Sunset Park that is close enough to Park Slope to merit its own cool name in an attempt to attract development.
