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.
