Since that time, the block has seen much Brooklyn History. According to its owners, during its early history, 20 Verandah served as a stop on the Underground Railroad. Nearby 40 Verandah Place housed novelist Thomas Wolfe while he wrote his novella No Door. In 1965, the newly formed Cobble Hill Association successfully lobbied the city to turn the site of a former church into what is now the lovely, flowering Cobble Hill Park. The Park is the very heart of this most charming, coveted neighborhood and is the delightful view from 20 Verandah Place.
