Fort Greene

Fort Greene


Home to the BAM Cultural District—theaters and performance venues, both new and restored—and the lovely eponymous park, Fort Greene is one of Brooklyn’s most desirable spots. Known as a multicultural haven, the neighborhood has many wonderful restaurants, the ever-popular Brooklyn Academy of Music, access to just about every major subway line and a combination of brownstones, pre-war apartment buildings and new modern condos. Inside the park are tennis courts and walking paths, and in the summer picnickers enjoy free concerts. The neighborhood is a short walk to all the amenities of Downtown Brooklyn and to the beautiful Pratt College of Art campus.
