Thissection became known as Warren Place Mews. The mews islocated in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, which has been designated anHistorical Landmark in 1970. It is situated between Henry and HicksStreets with the entrance on Warren Street.The homes were designed in the Romanesque Revival style of themiddle 19th century. The narrow houses were grouped in pairs undera continuous cornice with arched doorways. A special design featureof these houses is the turning at right angles of each pair of houses atthe ends of the court so as to face outwards onto Warren Street andBaltic Street. The houses were initially constructed to be rented out toworking people.One hundred years later, the Warren Race Mews is celebrating itscentennial anniversary on Sunday, October 1 . Sponsored by theWarren Place Association (WPA), the plans for celebration include atour of unusual homes, a bazaar and bake sale.In addition, on Thursday, September 21 at 9:45 a.m., BoroughPresident Golden will present a plaque to the Association to| commorate A.T.
