Location Brooklyn, Brooklyn, NY, United States
Modern Address 84 Herbert Street
Description

In  the Greenpoint neighborhood. The website below says these grounds were located at modern McGolrick Park, bounded by Diggs, Russell, Nassau and Monitor Streets.

Tom Gilbert's 2024 presentation at the Fred says these grounds were a bit further south of the above, on Herbert Street in between N. Henry and Monitor, about where St. Cecilia's Catholic Church (84 Herbert) now is.

Comment

Possible site of the Williamsburgh Cricket Club (1854), which played on grounds "near Wyckoff's Woods." Wyckoff's Woods is reported as "back of the Manor House" in 1870. The Washington BBC of Brooklyn is said to have played there in 1855.
