The Hatching Cat of Gotham

The Brooklyn Riding and Driving Club facilities were expanded in 1894 to accommodate high demand and again in 1905 to accommodate motor vehicles. The clubhouse and riding ring were demolished around 1939 and replaced with a six-story apartment building (20 Plaza Street). The carriage house and garage were used in later years as a public garage, but were replaced in 1959 by a 15-story apartment building (10 Plaza Street.)
