Grand Prospect Hall is a large Victorian banquet hall in Park Slope, Brooklyn, New York. Local entrepreneur John Kolle built this ornate palace in 1892. Kolle hired a young architect, Ulrich J.

It features pressed metal decoration originally painted in imitation of limestone.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
