Around Brooklyn
A Blast from Brooklyn’s Past!

It’s time for another installment
of “A Blast from
Brooklyn’s Past!” In partnership
with Brooklyn Historical
Society (BHS), this series
of photographs illustrates our
borough over the decades with
images from BHS’s vast collection.
With the holiday shopping
season in full swing, our partners
at BHS rang up four images
of Brooklyn storefronts.
Each of these locations could
easily have been the place
to fi nd the perfect gift for a
friend or loved one in Brooklyn’s
past. Take a guess as to
the location of each photo, and
be sure to check the Resource
Guide in this issue to fi nd out
whether you were right!
While you have shopping
on your mind, be sure to swing
by the Gift Shops at either of
BHS’s two locations, 128 Pierrepont
Street in Brooklyn
Heights or 55 Water Street in
DUMBO to check out BHS’s
selection of locally-made and
Brooklyn-inspired gifts this
holiday season!
