At the turn of the 20th century, in the Brooklyn Heights vicinity, the first Brooklyn skyscraper, the magnificent Temple Bar Building went up. Within a few decades, two dozen more popped up. In 2011, the city officially
recognized these buildings as historic landmarks despite fierce opposition from real estate developers.

And if you want to see these splendid buildings, as well as visit the Brooklyn Heights Historic District, join me and the New York Adventure Club on April 12th at 1 pm for a Brooklyn Heights 2 hour, $13 walking tour. Check out the article on UNTAPPED CITIES for details to sign up.
