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.

Midwood

Midwood is a tree-lined Brooklyn neighborhood anchored by the landmarked Fiske Terrace-Midwood Park Historic District, which preserves over 250 early 20th-century homes in Colonial Revival, Queen Anne, and Craftsman styles. The housing stock ranges from freestanding Victorian homes and limestone rowhouses to six-story prewar apartment buildings along Kings Highway. The B, Q, and F trains serve the neighborhood, and Brooklyn College's Georgian-style campus provides a notable architectural landmark at its southern edge.
