Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York June 25, 1920 (In re Scheibel)

Putnam, J.:

By a map filed in 1839 the streets, avenues and public squares of the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth wards of the former city of Brooklyn were laid out in a regular numbered series extending to the New Utrecht town line. New Utrecht then had the few streets and roads of an agricultural community.
