Scotto Funeral Home seeks new location after eviction
One of the best-known old businesses in Carroll Gardens, the Scotto Funeral Home, has been evicted from its brownstone at 104 First Place. and is now seeking a new location in the area.
The home, founded by the Scotto family in 1926, has been holding wakes at the Cobble Hill Funeral Home on nearby Court Street since being evicted in January.
“Scotto Funeral Home is a place in our heart not a building,” John Heyer Jr., one of the directors of the home, told Pardon Me for Asking. “We will continue to provide caring service to our community, although sadly not on First Place, since our eviction is no longer just a rumor but a reality.
