The Brownstone Republican Club was formed in 1994 to promote political and community activism in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn Heights, Red Hook and Cobble Hill. In recent years, it has grown to include DUMBO, Concord Village, Gowanus and part of Park Slope.

These eight neighborhoods form Brooklyn’s 52nd Assembly District.

The founders of the Brownstone Club drafted a mission statement that sums up their goals:

The mission of the Brownstone Republican Club is to develop and actively support Republican candidates for elective office, to provide a forum for discussion of political issues and other topics of city, state and federal interest and to encourage fellowship among politically like-minded individuals.

The Brownstone Republican Club meets every month in the Community Room at 101 Clark Street, just off Cadman Plaza West. The meeting site is accessible by all major bus and subway lines. We're a friendly group, ranging in age from 18 to 80. Our members include students, teachers, lawyers, retired judges, entrepreneurs, city, state and federal workers, retirees, homemakers, bankers, and people from all walks of life.
