In this July 3, 1996 file photo, the reconstructed Old Stone House stands in the Brooklyn borough of New York. The structure was rebuilt in the 1930s from the original fieldstones of a 1699 Dutch farmhouse where 400 Maryland soldiers fought a bloody delaying action, allowing 10,000 of Washington's troops to get away during the "Battle of Brooklyn" in 1776. As part of Battle Week, which observes the 232nd anniversary of the Battle of Brooklyn, a new plaque detailing the building's history was erected nearby, replacing one that disappeared after being put into storage in 1970.
