>There's an entire block around the corner from this photo that has nothing but gas lanterns. I love it.
Very few private house's still have the functional gas lamps, the pipework under the front yard is usually uneconomical to save, but they're so elegant when they do work
Some bold people (23 Middagh) IIRC still has the mantle lights off the front porch, and they showed me some in the yard at dusk, the class 🤌
I've been in nearly every basement in that corner of Brooklyn Heights, and I've clocked my head God knows how many times 😤
