Thursday, May 7, 2015. Eagle Warehouse and Storage Co. – Fulton Ferry Historic District. Built in 1893, the Eagle Warehouse and Storage Co. building was designed in a style known as Richardsonian Romanesque, named for Romanesque Revival architect Henry Hobson Richardson.

Issue 29 June 26, 2014. The rise and fall of Brooklyn’s most storied restaurants. The rise and fall of Brooklyn’s most storied restaurants. But even storied institutions disappear, remaining only as fading memories. Indeed, much like Ebbets Field and the Navy Yard today, these landmarks often bear just a trace of their former glory: a silhouette of an old sign, a façade now half-crumbled and ignored. The birth of the New York restaurant scene coincides with the birth of the United States. In 1762, th...

Brooklyn Relics: September 2014
https://brooklynrelics.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 19, 2014. I discovered the Gowanus Batcave a little too late since redevelopment construction had already begun. However, I was still able to get some photos of the exterior before the building began its outer transformation. These photos were taken last spring, so the building probably looks much different now. Gowanus Bat Cave from the Storage Deluxe. Gowanus Bat Cave from the Gowanus Canal. Gowanus Bat Cave from Smith and Ninth Train Platform. Those interested in a tour of the Gowanu...

BrooklynBallParks.com - The Washington Park Wall
http://www.covehurst.net/ddyte/brooklyn/washwall.html
The Washington Park Wall. Until October, 2010, along Third Avenue in Brooklyn, between First and Third Streets, and a little way along each street too, stood a very old brick wall. Just a third of the wall now remains, serving as the edge of a Con Edison storage yard, but this wall was once part of Washington Park. The question we want to answer is: which Washington Park? Is it part of the pre-Ebbets Field Dodger version, or was the wall erected in its entirety by the Tip Tops in 1914? But we also believ...
