Lonely Planet review

Built in 1881 and renovated in 2002, this four-story Queen Anne-style landmark building (a gem in its own right) houses a library (with some 33,000 grainy digitized photos from decades past), auditorium and museum devoted to the borough. The society also leads several Brooklyn walking tours (some free), and an occasional bus tour of the riverside Navy Yard.
