Joseph Steele’s 1840s frame house and other Clinton Hill eye candy
Eye On Real Estate
I’m Still Standing, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, as Elton John would say.
There’s a fine frame house built around 1845 — which can be found right at a busy intersection in Clinton Hill.
Joseph Steele House, as history-loving Brooklynites call it in honor of its original owner, is located at 200 Lafayette Ave.
It’s made of yellow-painted clapboard and has an octagonal cupola. It was designated as an individual city landmark in 1968.
