The Brooklyn Visitations (also known as the Triangles) were an American basketball team based in Brooklyn, New York City, that was a member of the Metropolitan Basketball League and the American Basketball League. The Visitations' home court was Prospect Hall, where fans were made to check their guns at the door.

After the 1935/36 season the team became the Paterson Visitations. Then, during the 1st half of the 1936/37 season, the team moved back to Brooklyn on November 21, 1936, and became the Brooklyn Visitations again.
