Neighborhood Profiles

Kensington

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.

Soho

SoHo contains the world's largest concentration of cast-iron architecture, with approximately 250 landmarked buildings within the SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District. The housing stock centers on spacious loft conversions with high ceilings and oversized windows, alongside luxury condominiums and pre-war walk-ups, served by the C, E, N, Q, R, W, 1, 4, and 6 trains. The cobblestone streets and commercial corridors along Broadway, West Broadway, and Prince Street define one of Manhattan's most architecturally distinctive neighborhoods.
