Brooklyn Borough Hall

A New York historic landmark well preserved and opened to the community. Architecture and cosmetic structural attributes are beautiful. This building serves as a town hall for events for the community. Certainly worth capturing one’s attention while in the passage of the area to admire the Greek Revival style columns of a court-​like marble and stone.
A Post Office sits inside this historic building. The view at night is amazingly beautiful!

The People’s House is always buzzing with Brooklyn’s best and the brightest. Love attending events in such a vital space open to the community for a variety of events. One year ago, I planned a work event to recognize two high-​performing schools in the borough. There is a major difference in hosting an event followed by a reception at a private space versus a public, governmental space. The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful, guiding me through the planning process to ensure that I had all of my bases covered. The event turned out so well that we were packed to capacity and yet everyone left a high note, especially the children.

While in college I spent a lot of time in this park as my dorm was a few blocks away. I got the opportunity to come back yesterday and people watch which is always fun.
We had a street preacher who informed us all that our lifestyles where leading us on «red eye to hell» which was great to know for future reference,
A couple who decided to take a bath in the fountain, because it’s the summer time in Brooklyn and why not?
There were all of the college students mulling about and high school student loitering.
The sky rats were in abundance and aimed their missiles with no regard for the oblivious humans below.
There is also a farmers market on the weekends if memory serves me correctly.

Eric Adams is the best Boro president in bk and the place is great place is very historicall

We came here for the Escapemakers event, presenting samples of local foods and ideas for local travel. The building itself is gorgeous, with architecture and stairs you wish you could slowly float down wearing a long, filmy, white toga. There is interesting African Art inside, though like most, we were concentrating more on the free food.
The event itself was loads of fun, with pulled pork samples from Dinosaur BBQ that just opened up a branch in Brooklyn, and very generous bakery samples from Allan’s Bakery on Nostrand Avenue. Allan’s was giving out their spectacular bread pudding, their red velvet cake, small meat patties and raisin pastry, which I thought was a little too heavy. There was a chef dishing out gumbo and another vendor giving out superb delicious fizzy sodas made with their syrup and supplying recipes. Local farms upstate were represented and came with yogurt and cheese samples, one being the famous Cabots. Red Jacket was also generous with their apples, beautiful Goldens and Honeycrisp. Local wineries were there, serving portions of their wines. Hey, do you know that if you can’t drive, you can take the Hampton Jitney to the Borghese vineyard? Or take a trip through Vintage Tours?(
). Amtrak was their promoting rail trips also. The whole thing was a nice tasting event in a beautiful venue that offered education on the farms and numerous places available in New York and Vermont for short trips. Before the event, I never even knew the Moore Street Market existed. Now it’s a destination for me. I would also come back to Brooklyn Borough Hall to see it more thoroughly.

In all my years in Brooklyn, I’d never stepped foot in here. Until yesterday, that is.
Went to pick up a package and thought the building was kind of cool. I loved the architecture and the stone and the woodwork. The elevators were slow but cool. The cop at the front desk was friendly and helpful, and easy on the eyes to boot.
I’ve walked by the Queens borough hall before, but I think Brooklyn is 45% more awesome.

Love the gorgeous Greek Revival style architecture! In front of the hall, there is a large plaza with a fountain and some tables, chairs, and benches. Very picturesque! I love the fact that it’s located in the heart of bustling Downtown Brooklyn.

It is a great place to have a snack, people-​watch, and sit on the stone steps. I recommend coming here if you do not mind a briskly cold lunch. There are also seats (folding chairs) and tables available in case you do not prefer hunching over and eating your meal. There is a view of a garden and also a Nativity scene for Christmas celebration.

This is my local Borough Hall. The Visitors center is located inside and I have seen several of different types of events use the Hall both outside and inside. This is a very Versatile location located within the heart of Downtown Brooklyn.
