Brooklyn Heights

Brooklyn Heights has a quiet confidence—after all, it has been one of New York City’s most sought-after destinations since the early 19th century. This upscale area, dotted with cobblestoned streets and well-preserved historical buildings, is one subway stop away from Lower Manhattan, and the world-famous Promenade offers unparalleled views of the harbor, the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan skyline. In this landmarked district, most of the new developments are by the water, where outdoors recreation options have boomed with the development of Brooklyn Bridge Park. Stylish high-end shopping is a short walk to next-door neighbor DUMBO.
