Can you solve the map mystery?

Thomas, Web Applications

When I catalog historical maps, I always try to figure out the modern geographic area that they cover, ideally down to the neighborhood level. Usually, I can find the answer, but the following map has me stumped. It likely covers some part of Brooklyn, but that's about as much as I can figure out. So I'm sending this out to all you map sleuths with the hopes that you can solve the mystery. Thanks for your help!
