Brooklyn Centre is a neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Brooklyn Centre )〕 It is adjacent to and separate from the Cleveland neighborhood known as Old Brooklyn. Of mixed heritage today, the original settlers of the area were Connecticut residents who had purchased land from investors of the Connecticut Western Reserve. Afterwards, German immigrants moved in starting in the late 19th century. They were followed by the Polish by the early 20th century who settled at the eastern end of Brooklyn Centre so they'd be close to the factories in and around the Cuyahoga River such as the tanneries and steel mills. In November 2004, The Brooklyn Centre Historical Society published ''Reflections from Brooklyn Centre: Presentations and Oral Histories from The Brooklyn Centre Historical Society.'' In November 2008, Brooklyn Centre became a National Wildlife Federation registered Community Wildlife Habitat Site,〔http://act3.typepad.com/brooklyn_centre_national_/2008/12/brooklyn-centre-national-wildlife-community-is-now-among-the-registered-community-wildlife-habitat-sites.html〕 and was among the very first city neighborhoods to obtain the designation. The eastern portion of Brooklyn Centre is known as Barbarowa.〔http://zodiacal.com/brooklyn/index.php5?title=History〕 Brooklyn Centre is bordered on the east by the Cuyahoga River. The west border is I-71. The border to the south is Big Creek which runs through the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and is the largest tributary that flows into the Cuyahoga. The northern border is a city street named Trowbridge. In the early 1960s the neighborhood was changed dramatically with the construction of I-71. Entire streets were lost and new cul-de-sacs and dead ends were created, changing the fabric of the neighborhood. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brooklyn Centre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
