  This may be a "group" effort, I hope.

  At one point I read the WT still had Brooklyn 34 properties to sell yet but not sure which properties that included. Some addresses I found, not sure if some of them were add-ons to already WT owned properties, or merged addresses.

  My main info source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watch_Tower_Bible_and_Tract_Society_of_Pennsylvania#Brooklyn_property_sales

  I welcome corrections and additions for certain. Also, if any of you want to take this and improve as we watch properties as they sell these next couple of years, that would be fine by me. I just would like to be able to keep up easily as all this transpires.

  "My sister sells sin on the corner,

  my mother she makes bath tub gin,

  but Oh how the money rolls in "

  war time song.

  and my past cong is 'raising the money' for a huge kh overhaul. Most are on low wages (funny that) and the rest are pensioners.

  Sold Furman already. Probably already developed.

  124 Columbia Heights....maybe they'll leave that for a WT museum.

  If you want to do some digital research, you can tip-toe through the digital bytes and bits using NYC ACRIS Records system. Unfortunately, it did not seem as well designed as some County Assessor's systems that I have accessed in the past. Brooklyn is in Kings County, NY.

  Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,
