Post
"No. 1402 Ditmas Avenue (at southeast corner of Rugby Road and Ditmas Avenue), 1958." This corner home sits outside of the nearby Ditmas Park Historic District but features many of the same details as the homes within the district: large Queen Anne style home, deep porches, and turrets.
Avenue H Station, BMT Brighton Line
Post
Avenue H Station House DATE: 1906 STYLE: Colonial Revival, Queen Anne The Avenue H station on the BMT line, originally the Brooklyn, Flatbush & Coney Island Railroad, built in 1906, is the city’s only shingled wooden cottage turned transit station house. Often compared to a country train stop, it originally served as a real estate sales office for developer Thomas Benton Ackerson to sell property in the adjacent neighborhood of Fiske Terrace, an early twentieth-century example of planned suburban development. The structure, with a hipped and flared roof and wraparound porch evokes in miniature the area’s Colonial Revival and Queen Anne houses.
