(P h oenix/P regosin Photo)FOURTEEN YEARS AGOOctober 26,1972Brooklyn was named the city-wide stoopball champs in the inaugural edition of the New York City Street games. The prize was a gold covered manhole cover given to each of the team members, who all hailed from Park Slope.Some $382,560 was allocated to fix up the Pacific St. branch of the Brooklyn Public Library. The branch had long been in disrepair but was further damaged by a fire that had occurred in February of that same year.Congressman Hugh Carey reacted strongly to charges made by his Republican opponent%u2019s campaign, calling him prejudiced, among other things. A half page ad in the Phoenix set the record straight, saying %u201cthe lies being spread about the Carey record degrade our community and insults the intelligence of our residents.%u201d The statement was followed by a series of rebuttals that linked Carey%u2019s support of issues with prominent Republicans.TEN YEARS AGO October 21, 1976St. Ann%u2019s buys 123 and 125 Pierrepont Street buildings from the First Unitarian Church to use for space for their school. The reported purchase price was $106,000. The buildings had been vacant for 20 years, and were sandwiched in between St. Ann%u2019s other buildings.The St. George Hotel was to be auctioned October 27.The staff of the Long Island Historical Society went on strike, claiming their employer paid slave wages. At the time of the strike, the highest paid full-time employee of LIHS made $7,500 annually. Management offered a four percent increase that the six workers rejected.FIVE YEARS AGO October 22,1981Gentrification hit a boiling point in Carroll Gardens, having infiltrated by way of Cobble Hill. Gardens residents complained that landlords and real estate brokers were using financial scare tactics to get people out of their apartments. Some residents said their problem was their own fault, as many residents used a handshake to seal a tenancy, not a lease %u2014 and with buildings being bought by new people, the handshake was not enough to keep their rents reasonable.Assemblymember Mel Millerpainted a bleak picture of the future of Brooklyn representation as he described the problems the results of the 1980 census had wrought for Brooklyn. Three State Assembly seats would be lost in the reapportionment, as would at least one Congressional seat, and possibly one State Senate seat. The census showed that 400,000 people had fled the borough, mostly from neighborhoods north of Prospect Park.Real estate prices were increasing quickly this year. A house bought in early 1981 for $125,000 was sold eight months later for $145,000. Ten years prior to that, a home that needed renovation sold for between $10,000 and $35,000.Juniors Cheesecake, which had not been sold anywhere since the restaurant was gutted by fire on August 17, began selling in several retail outlets.ONE YEAR AGO October 24, 1985The 17,000 homeowners that the city threatened to foreclose on were given a one month reprieve to make amends or find the money to pay back bills.A water main burst in Cobble Hill, leavng hundreds of residents as far away as the Red Hook houses without water. Damage to the flooded basements of Clinton Street residents was extensive, causing the City and the Brooklyn Union Gas Co. (which had been working in the area) to trade blame and liability for the incident.The name change of the Long Island Historical Society to the Brooklyn Historical Society was already causing financial success. In its first year under the new name, the society budgeted more than $600,000 in operating costs, compared with $225,000 raised when it was the LIHS.C hairm an of the BoardD.B.
