On the Grid : Weeksville Heritage Center

"Before there was Bed-Stuy and Crown Heights, there was a community called Weeksville created in 1838 by free blacks in New York. Three of the original homes have been restored and open for tours. WHC also hosts cultural events throughout the year celebrating the history and culture of black Brooklyn." - Stephanye Watts
