About Brooklyn
Brooklyn many a well-defined neighborhoods, many of which
have evolved separately from the cities and villages that date back to
the founder of the Dutch colonial era in the early 1600.
Today, Downtown Brooklyn is the third largest central business district in New York City, after Midtown Manhattan and Lower Manhattan. She has many towers and a rapidly growing number of residential buildings.
The northwestern neighborhoods between the Brooklyn Bridge and Prospect Park, including Boerum Hill, Brooklyn Heights, Carroll Gardens, cobble Hill, Clinton Hill, Vinegar Hill, DUMBO (an acronym for "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge overpass"), Fort Greene, Gowanus, Park Slope, Prospect Heights, and Red Hook, are characterized by many nineteenth century brick townhouses and brownstones. These neighborhoods are some of the most gentrified and affluent neighborhoods with a lot of the Brooklyn subway lines, cultural institutions and high-end restaurants.
Further north along the East River lie Williamsburg and Greenpoint. Traditionally, a vibrant cultural mix of the working class, many of the artists and hipsters have moved to the territory since the late 1990s. Further changing the area, the city completed an extensive rezoning of the Brooklyn waterfront in 2005, which would allow for many new residential condominiums. As prices have risen, redevelopment has moved east away from the waterfront into Bushwick along the L subway line.
Central and southern Brooklyn contains many more architecturally and culturally diverse neighborhoods, some of which grew rapidly at the end of the 19th and 20 beginning of the century, upwardly mobile immigrants moved out of tenement buildings in Manhattan such as the Lower East Side neighborhoods. Borough Park is largely Orthodox Jewish, Bedford-Stuyvesant is the largest black neighborhood in the country; Bensonhurst is historically Italian. Dyker Heights is a neighborhood Italian. East Flatbush and Fort Greene is home to a large number of medium-class black professionals. A lot of Russians living in Brighton Beach. Since 1990, Brooklyn has seen a rise in new immigration suburbs, such as Sunset Park, home to flourishing Mexican and Chinese American communities.
