Past Old Brooklyn Days

The past few years have seen Old Brooklyn Community Development staff and volunteers out and about in the neighborhood completing fun projects that make this neighborhood a great place to live.  

Past projects included street clean-ups, mural painting with kids at the South Brooklyn Library and seniors at Senior Citizen Resources, and tree plantings at Estabrook Recreation Center.
