The Lefferts Historic House was built circa 1783, and is located in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NYC. The house is the former home of enslaved people and the family of Pieter Lefferts, who was an army Lieutenant. It's now a museum of the family's life in Kings County. This photo is from my first visit to the park, on a very wet week day, and not a person in sight! I did go back on a weekend, sunny with folk everywhere.
