Old homestead

Facade of three-story house with dormer and shuttered windows, portion of two parked automobiles in foreground, and portions of adjoining houses on both sides. Caption: "Old homestead--This clapboard house at 135 Joralemon St. was chosen by the Municipal Art Society as a structure which should be preserved because it is typical of the architectural style in homes built all over Brooklyn around 1800. The cast iron porch is also one of the best existent examples of the porches that were added around the middle of the century."
