New York Brookhattan was an American soccer club based in New York, New York that was a member of the professional American Soccer League. The club joined the ASL for its final season.

After the disintegration of the original ASL following the 1933 spring season, Brookhattan and the New York Americans of the old league helped form a new, but lower professional level, ASL in 1933/34.

Before the 1938/39 season the club dropped "New York" from their name becoming simply Brookhattan. Before the 1957/58 season the team became Brookhattan-Galicia. That name lasted only one season when the club simply became Galicia S.C.. Before the 1961/62 season the team merged with the amateur club Honduras to become Galicia-Honduras.

The club won the Lewis Cup in 1942. In 1945 they accomplished the first "treble" in American soccer history winning the league, the U.S. Open Cup and the Lewis Cup.
