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.

The namesake hilltop park offers panoramic Manhattan skyline views and a 1936 neoclassical public pool, while the commercial corridors along Fifth Avenue and Eighth Avenue anchor the neighborhood. The D train at Ninth Avenue, N/R at 36th-45th-53rd Streets provide multiple subway connections to Manhattan.
