This Sunday, September 29, at 1:00 PM, rain or shine, there will be a ceremony at the corner of Monroe Place and Pierrepont Street to unveil a sign giving Monroe Place the honorary name “Mary Anne Yancey Place.” Ms. Yancey, a long time Brooklyn Heights resident who lived with her now late husband Richard C. Yancey and three now adult children on Monroe Place, died in 2013. Her many civic, cultural, and educational activities are described in the linked Eagle obituary.
