His family moved to Harlem, where he started his schooling at P.S. 83 on East 110th Street near Second Avenue, and later graduated from Harlem Evening High School and Fordham University School of Law. He then enlisted in the U.S. Army and was assigned to the Engineer Corps, but World War I ended before he was sent overseas.[3] CareerGladstone set up a private law practice in Manhattan and was active in the Bronx County Democratic organization, serving as secretary of his district's county committee, as a delegate to judicial conventions, and on the law and speakers' committees.[3] Gladstone was also active in a variety of fraternal, civic, religious, and political circles. He was chairman of the board of directors of the Hunts Point Hebrew Association, President of the Onward Lodge of the Independent Order of Brith Abraham, and a member the American Legion, the Elks, and the Bronx County Bar Association.[3] He was elected to the Assembly on the Democratic Party and Recovery Party lines in November 1933[4] and re-elected November 1934.[5] He devoted his legislative career to improving educational standards and conditions in the public schools. He was also chairman of the 1934 Emergency Unemployment Relief drive in the Bronx.[3] On April 2, 1935, Gladstone collapsed from a heart attack in the Assembly and rushed by ambulance to Albany Hospital.[6] He had appeared to recover and was in apparent good health when he was re-elected to a third term in November 1935. However, on December 13, 1935, after leaving a meeting at the local Democratic Club and returning home, he suddenly collapsed and died.[3] He was succeeded by Julius J. Gans, who won a special election held on January 22, 1936.[7] LegacyGladstone was survived by his wife, Florence, and three-year-old daughter, Mildred.[3] Benjamin Gladstone Square, surrounded by Westchester Avenue, Hoe Avenue, and West Farms Road, a block away from Gladstone's residence at 1106 West Farms Road and formerly called Fox Square, was named after him in 1937.[8][9] References1. ^New York City Births, 1846-1909," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2WSY-7T5 : 20 March 2015), Glatstein, 14 Dec 1896; citing Manhattan, New York, New York, United States, reference cn 54905 New York Municipal Archives, New York; FHL microfilm 1,322,346. 2. ^New York City Municipal Deaths, 1795-1949," FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:2WGX-VY4 : 20 March 2015), Benjamin Gladstone, 13 Dec 1935; citing Death, Bronx, New York, New York, United States, New York Municipal Archives, New York; FHL microfilm 2,156,400. 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite news|title=Gladstone is Dead; Legislator Was 39 — Assemblyman From the Bronx Suffers Heart Attack After Political Meeting — Worked to Aid Education — Maintained Law Office Here and Was Active in Welfare and Religious Fields|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1935/12/14/93511569.html?pageNumber=15|accessdate=18 April 2017|work=New York Times|date=December 14, 1935|page=35}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=Mayoralty Race Reduced to Nine — But They Represent Twelve Tickets — Others Seeking Office Are Listed — Voting Machines Likely — More Eliminations Expected So That A Paper Ballot Will Be Unnecessary — List of Candidates Who Will Be On Ballots in Municipal Election Nov. 7|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1933/10/15/90640427.html?pageNumber=82|accessdate=18 April 2017|work=New York Times|date=October 15, 1933|edition=Second News|page=2}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Full State Ticket Will Be Elected — 3 Judges of Court of Appeals and Congress Members Also to Be Chosen Tuesday — Polls Open Till 6 P.M. — Upward of 1,700,000 Voters in the City Are Expected to Cast Ballots|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1934/11/04/94577596.html?pageNumber=84|accessdate=18 April 2017|work=New York Times|date=November 4, 1934|edition=Second News Section|page=3}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Gladstone Slightly Improved|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1935/04/04/94593387.html?pageNumber=4|accessdate=18 April 2017|work=New York Times|agency=Associated Press|date=April 4, 1935|page=4}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Assembly Seat Won By Bronx Democrat — Gans Is Victor in Special Vote — Communist Runs Second, Republican Fourth|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1936/01/22/87900422.html?pageNumber=2|accessdate=18 April 2017|work=New York Times|date=January 22, 1936|page=2}} 8. ^{{cite news|title=Bronx Square Dedicated — Memory of Assemblyman Gladstone Honored by Service|url=https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1937/06/13/94388025.html?pageNumber=24|accessdate=18 April 2017|work=New York Times|date=June 13, 1937|page=24}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=Benjamin Gladstone Square — History|url=https://www.nycgovparks.org/parks/benjamin-gladstone-square/history|website=nycgovparks.org|publisher=New York City Department of Parks|accessdate=18 April 2017}} External links{{findagrave|75210427}}{{S-start}}{{s-par|us-ny-hs}}{{succession box | title = New York State AssemblyBronx County, 5th District | before = Harry A.
