Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- Pointed tower and small dormers
A pyramid-roofed corner tower and a row of small roof dormers are the finest parts of this building. Full detail keeps them; a larger print size protects them.
- Tall arched windows
The side walls have narrow arched window recesses. A layer height of 0.12-0.16 mm keeps their outlines crisp.
- One piece with the ground
The Brooklyn Historical Society Building is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.

About the Brooklyn Historical Society Building
Founded in 1863, the Center for Brooklyn History (formerly the Brooklyn Historical Society) combines a museum, a library and an educational center. Its headquarters stands in Brooklyn Heights, where Pierrepont and Clinton Streets meet. George B. Post designed it after a competition among 14 architects, and David H. King Jr. built it between 1878 and 1881.
The building's terra cotta ornamentation came from the Perth Amboy Terra Cotta Company, while Olin Levi Warner created its architectural sculptures, among them busts of Shakespeare, Columbus, Beethoven, Michelangelo, Gutenberg and Benjamin Franklin, plus a Viking and a Native American. It has been called a great architectural treasure of the city.
Henry Pierrepont founded the organization as the Long Island Historical Society, and in 1985 it adopted the Brooklyn Historical Society name. The building lies in the historic district for Brooklyn Heights that was designated in 1966, and it became a National Historic Landmark in 1991. Restoration of the whole building started in October 1999 under architect Jan Hird Pokorny, and it reopened in 2003.
