JEREMY LECHTZIN NAMED NEW PRESIDENT OF BROOKLYN HEIGHTS ASSOCIATION
BROOKLYN HEIGHTS — THE BROOKLYN HEIGHTS ASSOCIATION has a new president, the organization announced Thursday. Architectural historian and tech lawyer Jeremy Lechtzin was named president of BHA’s Board of Governors for 2024-2026. Lechtzin is currently writing a data-driven analysis of every house built in Brooklyn Heights and creating a digital map of the lost streetscape of the Village of Brooklyn as it existed in 1816, BHA notes. (Read his memorable piece in The New York Times about how in 1870 nearly every street address in Brooklyn was changed, and that move’s knock-on results.)
