Row houses this old were plumbed long before dishwashers existed, so the machine usually drains into lines that were adapted rather than designed for it. Compact and 18-inch models are common in the narrow kitchens of carriage houses and garden floors. ## What Brooklyn Heights does to a dishwasher. Most of its brownstone rowhouses were built before the Civil War. There were seven houses on the Heights in 1807, more than six hundred by 1860, and the area was almost fully built by 1890. As its merchant families moved away, many mansions were divided into apartment houses and boarding houses. Apartment buildings such as the Bossert of 1909 and Leverich Towers of 1928 went up among the row houses.

The one here was added later, often draining into a sink trap and an old galvanized or cast iron line that narrows with age, so a slow drain can live in the house as easily as in the machine. ### Small kitchens A compact or ADA-height dishwasher squeezed into an older cabinet run has little room for its door to swing or its brackets to grip, and a door that will not latch cleanly is often about the opening as much as the latch. ### Mixed housing Older dishwashers here tend to have mechanical timers and simpler parts that are still worth fixing, while newer ones rely on sensors and electronic controls, so the diagnosis changes from one door to the next. ## A visit in Brooklyn Heights.
