Story of an Entrance Wall


You only get one chance with a first impression, and our Brookfield entrance sign is our community's first impression.

Since the neighborhood association started, a group of advocates has been working tirelessly to renew the look to our neighborhood, and we're pleased to announce the completion of this project.

New as of February 19, 2011 is the addition to a flagpole flying Old Glory. Check out our beautiful new entrance wall, and see the steps and hard work it took to get here!

Thanks to all of those who helped with planning; architecture and engineering; removal; restoration; cement work; painting; gardening; and all the other tasks that were required for this renewal project. A heartfelt nod also goes to those who constantly maintain its appearance. Finally, thanks also to those who participated financially, for direct contributions, helping with our "buy a brick" program, and more.
