Neighborhood Profiles

Flatbush

Flatbush features one of Brooklyn's most varied housing stocks, including grand detached Victorians along Ocean Avenue, limestone and brownstone rowhouses, prewar apartment buildings, and brick townhomes within landmarked enclaves like Prospect Park South and Ditmas Park. The Q, 2, and 5 trains connect the neighborhood to Manhattan, while Prospect Park's 526 acres of green space border the northern edge. The restored Kings Theatre, a 1920s-era landmark performance venue, and Erasmus Hall High School, founded in 1786, are among the area's most notable architectural features.

Bergen Beach

Bergen Beach occupies a low peninsula in southeastern Brooklyn, nearly surrounded by water, featuring postwar brick and stucco single-family homes with driveways, front lawns, and a distinctly suburban layout built on reclaimed tidal flats during the 1950s and 1960s. The nearest subway is the L train at Canarsie-Rockaway Parkway, about 1.5 miles north. Waterfront parks and restored marshlands along the Paerdegat Basin and Jamaica Bay shoreline provide green space and kayaking access.
