  • About Us

    The Friends of the Lott House is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization that was incorporated as the Hendrick I. Lott House Preservation Association in 1994. The group was founded by a group of architects and community members who were passionate about preserving the historic Lott House, which was unoccupied and in a state of disrepair.

    Today, the Friends of the Lott House continues to be composed of community volunteers who are working in collaboration with NYC Parks and Historic House Trust towards restoring the interior of the house and opening it to the public. The organization is committed to ensuring that this important piece of New York City's history is preserved for future generations.


    Friends of the Lott House’s mission is to preserve and interpret the history and material culture of the 1720 and 1800 Hendrick I. Lott farmhouse in Marine Park, Brooklyn. It aims to educate and engage the public about this historic structure; the Lott family; the farm; the community of enslaved, immigrant and native-born workers; and the history of southern Brooklyn through interpretive programming.
