You can admire superb terraced houses in red sandstone (brownstones) and authentic mansions dating from before the American Civil War! Architectural qualities that made it the first neighborhood protected by the New York City Monuments Conservation Commission.
The Brooklyn Heights Promenade offers magnificent views of the East River and the Manhattan skyline. An experience that will extend naturally when you enter Brooklyn Bridge Park, which can be said without exaggeration as one of the most photogenic green spaces in the city.
