Mapleton is a compact residential pocket in southwestern Brooklyn between Borough Park and Bensonhurst, defined by 1920s brick two-family homes with porches and bay windows alongside small apartment buildings on McDonald Avenue. The F train serves the 18th Avenue station and the N train stops at Bay Parkway, both within walking distance. Gravesend Park, at the neighborhood's northern edge, offers nearly 6.5 acres of recreation.
