ABOUT EAST NEW YORK, BROOKLYN: Founded in the 1825 by John Pitkin as the Town of New Lots, East New York got its name because of its location-found farther east than any other neighborhood in Brooklyn. It shares an eastern border with several Queens neighborhoods and, if you include Cypress Hills in its area, also brushes up against Queens to the north. The boundaries extend south down to Shirley Chisholm State Park and Jamaica Bay.
