Forgotten New York

CATHEDRAL PREP, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn

This is a photo of the Cathedral Prep, Brooklyn, basketball team in a late 1920s yearbook. The fellow on the right, John Crane, was the coach, and by the time I got to the school in the Super Seventies, he was still the coach.

I have a number of photos of the school (which looks like a medieval castle) in the old days, and a few from a 2005 visit, so I’m thinking of doing a more comprehensive page about the place.
