Any Architecture/History Buffs That Might Help Me?

I gave the tour Sunday and I put it out there to the tour takers. It's definitely a fleur de lys. It must be just for stylistic purposes because that neighborhood doesn't have a strong French connection. And it did look like a poppy to me (the link you shared [MENTION=22948]TigerLover[/MENTION] isn't working for me though. But someone on the tour said that poppies did have a connection to the Netherlands, probably what [MENTION=23118]starlight[/MENTION] pointed out too.

D'awwww

Ah well it was worth a try.
Guess there is a difference between a 16th century system of symbols enforced by the pope and the crests on a house in modern day Brooklyn. Who'd of thought it.
