D Pollock Allotment - 1853
In 1853, Daniel Pollock, a west side businessman filed this commercial plat which identified the former Brooklyn Public Square as having dimensions of 30 feet by 139.5 feet rather than 132 feet by 132 feet as identified in other Cuyahoga County records. It took a law suit in 1858 to determine not only whether the Brooklyn village square was still public land, but what the correct dimensions of that square were. | Source: Cuyahoga County Archives
