To ease overcrowding in Park Slope’s public elementary schools, the city is currently scoping out a space for a new Brooklyn public school. But the vacant lot being considered may be a historic graveyard, Brownstoner reported. Located between 8th and 9th streets, off Third Avenue, in Gowanus, the site is thought by some to be the burial site for First Maryland Regiment soldiers who died in the Battle of Brooklyn during the Revolutionary War.
