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.

Chinatown

Chinatown occupies a dense section of Lower Manhattan centered on Canal Street, where 10 subway lines converge including the 6, J, N, Q, R, W, and Z trains, making it one of the most transit-rich neighborhoods below 14th Street. The housing stock consists primarily of prewar walk-up buildings alongside newer condominium developments and the 44-story Confucius Plaza residential tower. Columbus Park, one of the city's earliest public parks, and the 7.8-acre Sara D. Roosevelt Park provide open green space along the neighborhood's edges.
