An 18th century well was recently uncovered in the Boerum Hill neighborhood of Brooklyn, and a one-of-a-kind historical marker was mounted at the site in April 2021. Abby Goldstein designed the small plaque with raised letters. Its center-justified text succinctly deploys Study’s lining figures, old-style figures, Th ligature, small capitals, and fleuron.
