Greenpoint, Brooklyn has been one of the largest Polish communities outside of Poland in the world for 140 years. Join us as we visit many of the sites associated with Greenpoint’s Polish history including St. Stanislaus Kostka R.C Church, The Polish National Home and other historic sites that help us trace local Polish-American history. We will discuss the history of Polish immigration to the area and how and why Greenpoint became “Little Poland.”
