Very interesting to discover that there is a full service abortion clinic in Brooklyn, a few blocks from One Pierrepont Plaza, the Hillary for America HQ where John Podesta worked during the campaign.
Its address is 44 Court St, Fl 6, Brooklyn, NY 11201 on the corner of Joralemon Street and Court Street. Steps away from the Planned Parenthood Clinic is a branch office of European Adoption Consultants, the Ohio HQ of which were the subject of an FBI raid in Feb. and which is also presently being sued by the OH AG. There is also a Foster Care agency directly across the street on Joralemon St.
The Brooklyn address for European Adoption Consultants is still listed in yahoo search as 186 Joralemon Street, even though it doesn't show up on Google Maps. Foster Care and Adoption is at 191 Joralemon St, Brooklyn, NY 11201
Curiously enough, Joralemon Street is locally famous for sitting atop the massive Joralemon Street Tunnel, originally known as the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel. More historical background on it here:

It's also conveniently close to the Columbia Street Waterfront District and not far at all from the Brooklyn Terminal in the Red Hook area. Schedule of international ship arrivals and departures here: https://www.nycruise.com/schedule/
One other note: 58 Joralemon Street, is another local curiosity. You can find numerous accounts online of people who are frightened by its sinister appearance and describe it as "a portal to the underworld". This NY Times article is an artful description of the unsettling effect it has on passersby and visitors.
For whatever it's worth, the proximity of these organizations and agencies and the convenient access to many avenues of transportation is certainly intriguing, if nothing else.
