Neighborhood Profiles

Bergen Beach

Bergen Beach occupies a low peninsula in southeastern Brooklyn, nearly surrounded by water, featuring postwar brick and stucco single-family homes with driveways, front lawns, and a distinctly suburban layout built on reclaimed tidal flats during the 1950s and 1960s. The nearest subway is the L train at Canarsie-Rockaway Parkway, about 1.5 miles north. Waterfront parks and restored marshlands along the Paerdegat Basin and Jamaica Bay shoreline provide green space and kayaking access.

Gramercy Park

Gramercy Park is one of New York City’s most storied and architecturally distinctive neighborhoods, centered around the only private park in Manhattan. The area exudes old-world charm with its gas-lit streets and impeccably preserved 19th-century architecture. While the park itself is private, the surrounding real estate offers a mix of historic brownstones, elegant pre-war cooperatives, and boutique new developments that cater to those seeking a low-traffic urban retreat.
