Hey guys,

I'm looking to compile a brief history of Prospect Heights (demographics, class shifts, food culture, etc.) minus Wackipedia. :D Can any point me in the right direction? Anyone I should holla at?

    Forgotten NY and NY historical society both have pretty cool websites

    I'm pretty sure the census lets one look at the data it collects from prior periods.

    You should check out the Public Library @ Grand Army Plaza. On the second floor, they have a whole section devoted to the history of Brooklyn.

    The historical society is also a good spot, but they charge for admission.
