A Classic..

Take the A train or walk over the Brooklyn Bridge. Explore Brooklyn Heights with this book and enjoy the view from the Promenade!!!!! it doen't get any better. Want more?? Get a Copy of February House or read Truman Capote's essay " A House in the Heights."

Brooklyn Heights History

This is a wonderful book as we are new to Brooklyn Heights and are eager to learn it's history. However, the condition of the book was less than what i expected. Just a bit disappointing in that respect.
