Brooklyn Centre Historic DistrictThe heart of Brooklyn Centre is at the intersection of West 25th Street and Denison Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio. Brooklyn Centre was first settled in the early 1800's, by the Fish, Brainard, and Foote families, as a farming community. The area achieved the status of "Historic District" on May 7, 1984, with a formal dedication ceremony held on May 20, 1984 at the Archwood United Church of Christ. The area contains many landmarks of historic note.
Today is: Thursday, October 31, 2024
This branch started as an offshoot of the genealogy section. The Wiki format allows for a convenient place to store and organize tidbits of information found while researching various families residing in the area. Trying to write about the history of a neighborhood is like attempting to read a book where big clumps of pages are stuck together. You can open some of the pages and gets glimpses but the big majority of the text is hidden. Sometimes, if you are lucky, a couple of pages can be pried apart and some new parts can be read. More often than not, though, those pages are destined to remain glued together and you'll never really know what was inside although occasionally you can make inferences. Any history contained within this Wiki has been brought out a bit at a time, as it is found. This means that if you read one of the pages today, in a week or a month's time more may have been added as new things were discovered. It's an ongoing process. Unless you know exactly what you are looking for here, I suggest that you click on the Random Page link over in the Navigation menu on the left. Using it will give you an opportunity to dip your toes in unexpected places. Enjoy.

ROSARY/PROCESSION Dear Fellow Parishioners, Fellow members of this Parish have joined a coalition called the Endangered Catholics, which is a representation of members of parishes that are closing. As part of our strategy to support our Parish, we are holding a procession, prayer service and ROSARY and we are asking all of you to come and be part of it.
We are doing this as a unified parish in close proximity to the feast of the Assumption and also as a Polish custom directing prayers to our Blessed Mother for the future of this beloved Parish. If you are of Polish descent, we are asking your support in leading two decades of the Rosary in Polish, and singing some treasured Polish Marian hymns. We will process with signs around the church property. Please bring a lawn chair to sit on if you feel you need it. Please bring your family members and friends and make this known to as many people as you can. CANDLES AND PLACARDS WILL BE PROVIDED FOR YOU TO CARRY!! You can assemble on the front steps wherever you feel comfortable. Please stay away from the street as much as possible and do not block the street. Fellow Catholics from 13 other parishes slated to close will be doing the very same thing at their churches. COME SHOW YOUR SOLIDARITY WITH US!!
Additional demonstrations will take place at St. John Cathedral in downtown Cleveland.
