Historical Society of Old Brooklyn

In 1982, a group of people from the Old Brooklyn neighborhood gathered at The Glenn Restaurant to form a historical society named the Four Corners Guild. In 1986, it became the Historical Society of Old Brooklyn. Its mission is to attract people with a common interest in the history of Old Brooklyn to collect, catalogue, and display items of historical significance; provide housing, preservation, and safekeeping of said items; support and promote the cause of historic preservation; and disseminate historical information to the public.
