Jackie Robinson House
Jackie Robinson House, Civil rights landmark in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, United States.
The Jackie Robinson House at 5224 Tilden Avenue features a two-story brick duplex structure with three sash windows and a wooden-railed porch.
From 1947 to 1949, this residence housed baseball pioneer Jackie Robinson during his groundbreaking seasons with the Brooklyn Dodgers as the first African American in Major League Baseball.
The National Register of Historic Places recognized this house in 1976 for its role in transforming professional sports and advancing racial integration in American society.
Located in a residential neighborhood, the property stands as a testament to the challenging housing conditions African American families encountered in post-World War II Brooklyn.
Robinson received both Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player awards while residing at this East Flatbush address between 1947 and 1949.
