Landmarks Preservation Commission says respect that tea porch at 8 Montague Terrace
Bring out the Earl Grey in the good bone china cups, and drink a toast. The tea porch at 8 Montague Terrace is going to be restored.
Brooklyn Heights is one of the few places in New York City where the houses are old enough to have tea porches — and they’ve been left intact.
These porches are attached to the back parlors of 19th-Century houses, so they’re usually invisible to the public.
