Bolstered by an influx of artists and young professionals, many relocating from Williamsburg and East Williamsburg, expansive Bedford-Stuyvesant still retains a sense of history and a lively atmosphere. Bed-Stuy gives Park Slope a run for its money when it comes to classic Victorian brownstones-if you wish for a wood-burning fireplace or immaculate parquet floors, this is a good place to look-and it has a strong sense of community, with block parties enlivening the streets during summer. The restored Billie Holiday Theatre has become a culture magnet, and transportation is convenient.
