Arlington Branch, Brooklyn Public Library
Post

Arlington Branch, January 18, 1959. Completed in 1906 to the designs of Richard A. Walker of architectural firm of Walker & Morris, the Arlington Branch is typical of the suburban model of Carnegie Libraries. Originally called the East Branch, the two-story building is freestanding, within a larger lot surrounded by a lawn, and is symmetrical in layout with large windows. The library has one of the most well-preserved Carnegie Library interiors in the city. Original features include two graceful wooden staircases, oak trim,decorative mezzanine railings, and a fireplace surrounded by oak paneled reading nooks.

Public School 108
Post

P. S. 108, Sal Abbracciamento, Brooklyn Designed by James Naughton and built in 1895, P.S. 108 is located at 200 Linwood Street in the Cypress Hills section of Brooklyn. This distinctive Romanesque Revival brick and Lake Superior sandstone school building with prominent pavilions (atypical of this style of architecture), quoins, dormers and a paneled chimney was designated an historic landmark in 1981. Named in honor of Sal Abbracciamento, P.S 108 continues to serve the community as a public school.

Isaac Cornel Schenck House
Post

Isaac Cornel Schenck Homestead, 1946. In 1771, Isaac Cornel Schenck's father Johannes purchased a farm in New Lots and ten years later gave it to his son. The farmland included a house of unknown age. Supposedly in 1791 while Isaac was expanding the home, he discovered musket and a rapier blade marked "1649" in the wall and cannon balls buried in its yard. The farm and farmhouse remained with Isaac Cornel's descendants through 1891 when it was sold to the city of Brooklyn and became part of the newly developed Highland Park. The Parks Department used the structure for park functions for some time. In 1945, Maud Esther Dillard in her book The Dutch Houses of Brooklyn wrote, "Now it stands vacant and desolate and will probably be torn down unless some responsible organization takes it under its wing and furnishes it as a museum." Still standing in 1951 when it was again captured for the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, the home was likely demolished soon after.
