69号橙街由现任业主精心保护，保留了所有原始特征，例如扶手、木工、五金、模具和历史牛奶漆。这座房屋建于1829年，采用联邦式木板房风格，并配有维多利亚风格的附加部分，如带有装饰性细节的斜屋顶。

最初，这处物业的主人是萨拉·格雷西，她是玛莎·米达赫-范·诺斯特兰的女儿，后者将布鲁克林高地称为“水果街”。格雷西和米达赫家族在纽约市奢华房地产市场的早期阶段非常知名，格雷西大厦就是有力的证明，该大厦位于上东区，目前是纽约市市长的住所。

69号橙街位于标志性普利茅斯教堂旁边，普利茅斯教堂与美国的废奴运动有着悠久的历史。普利茅斯教堂的第一位牧师亨利·沃德·比彻是一位杰出的废奴主义者，他致力于自由事业。甚至比彻的姐姐哈丽雅特·比彻·斯托也对此深感投入，她是美国经典反奴隶制书籍《汤姆叔叔的小屋》的作者。亨利·沃德·比彻的名声吸引了成千上万的人来访教堂，包括伊丽莎白·凯迪·斯坦顿、亚伯拉罕·林肯和马克·吐温，他们在前往教堂的路上都会经过69号橙街。普利茅斯教堂是地下铁路的著名中心，传说在旅程中挣扎的被奴役者在69号橙街被接纳并给予庇护，因为房屋的一位业主亨利·L·普拉特在比彻年代是普利茅斯教堂的执事。

布鲁克林高地完美地平衡了激动人心、快节奏的城市生活和舒适的郊区放松。69号橙街靠近Cadman广场和惠特曼公园，以及许多优秀的餐厅和商店，还有布鲁克林大桥和克拉克街地铁站。

69 Orange has been meticulously preserved by the current owners and contains all original features, such as handrails, woodworking, hardware, molding, and historical milk paint. Built in 1829, this house was built in the Federal clapboard style and features Victorian add-ons such as the mansard roof with gingerbread details.

Originally, this property was owned by Sarah Gracie, daughter of Martha Middagh-Van Nostrand, who named the Brooklyn Heights "Fruit Streets". The Gracie and Middagh families were well-known in the early years of the New York City luxury real estate market, as evidenced by the Gracie mansion on the Upper East Side, which is now home to the New York City Mayor.

69 Orange Street is situated directly next to the iconic Plymouth Church, which has a long history with the abolitionist movement in the United States. The first preacher at Plymouth church, Henry Ward Beecher, was a prominent and well-known abolitionist who dedicated himself to the cause of freedom. Even Beecher's sister, Harriet Beecher Stowe, was committed, as she was the author of the American Classic and anti-slavery book, Uncle Tom's Cabin. Henry Ward Beecher's fame attracted thousands to visit the church, including Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Abraham Lincoln, and Mark Twain, who walked past 69 Orange Street on their way to the church. Plymouth church was a well-known hub of the Underground Railroad, and legend has it that enslaved people making the journey were taken in and given sanctuary at 69 Orange Street, as one of the house's owners, Henry L. Pratt was the deacon of Plymouth Church during the Beecher years.

Brooklyn Heights is the perfect balance of exciting, fast-paced city life and comfortable suburban relaxation. 69 Orange Street is close to Cadman Plaza and Whitman Park, as well as many great restaurants and shops, and the Brooklyn Bridge and Clark Street subway station.
