Do you know the history of YOUR house? ******************************************************************************************************************************** “Highland Park Slope” was a ritzy name. It was the moniker that the realtors selected for the Arlington Avenue section of East New York around 1900. The name never really caught on. Perhaps it was just too similar to Park Slope. Today the neighborhood is known as Highland Park and the greater area has taken the moniker of its northern cemetery neighbor – Cypress Hills. Today, Sunnyside Avenue runs east-west just south of the Jackie Robinson and the maze of cemeteries.
