If you’ve ever wanted to know the approximate age of all the buildings here in Brooklyn, Thomas Rhiel has a map for that.

Posted Thursday on [BKLYNR](http://bklynr.com/block-by-block-brooklyns-past-and-present/?ref=bklyner.com), the map plots the “320,000-odd buildings” in our borough according to the year they were constructed. It’s another one of those really addicting maps that history fans and those looking to kill a little time at the office are sure to go nuts for.

Here in our neighborhood we’ve got a large number of areas shaded green, dating the homes back to around 1899\. As you move closer to [Green-Wood](http://www.green-wood.com/?ref=bklyner.com), though, the buildings date closer to the 1930s and 1940s.

Your South Slope News editor is in the 1899 camp. How old is your building?
