Neighborhood Profiles

Gowanus

Gowanus features a striking mix of 19th-century brick warehouses, Greek Revival rowhouses, and new glass-and-steel condominiums rising along the canal waterfront. The F, G, R, D, and N/W trains are accessible at nearby Smith-Ninth Streets and Fourth Avenue-Ninth Street stations, with Atlantic Terminal a short walk north. Washington Park and the Old Stone House landmark anchor the neighborhood's green space, while a major rezoning is bringing thousands of new residential units and waterfront parkland to the area.

Manhattan Beach

Manhattan Beach occupies the southeastern tip of Brooklyn with spacious single-family homes, many in Mediterranean Revival style on lots of 3,000 square feet or more, set along quiet residential streets between Sheepshead Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. No subway runs directly through the neighborhood; the B train at Sheepshead Bay and the Q at Brighton Beach are the closest stations. The 40-acre Manhattan Beach Park features a sandy public beach, playgrounds, tennis courts, sports fields, and a scenic boardwalk along the oceanfront.
