Jan. 27, 1883:  Regarding the Brooklyn baseball park being built on the grounds where Revolutionary War soldiers under General George Washington fought the British, the New York Clipper notes:   “The old house known as Washington’s headquarters is to be reconstructed and made one of the attractions of the place.”  (The Old House initially is used as a ladies restroom.)
