Kensington is a residential Brooklyn neighborhood bordered by Prospect Park to the north and the landmarked Green-Wood Cemetery to the west, with Ocean Parkway running through its center as one of the borough's signature tree-lined boulevards. The housing stock includes brick rowhouses, prewar co-op apartment buildings along Ocean Parkway and Coney Island Avenue, and detached Victorian homes on the side streets, served by the F and G trains at Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue. The B and Q express trains are accessible within a short walk, providing a 30-to-35-minute commute to Midtown Manhattan.
View Full Market ReportBergen 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.
