Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn
Brooklyn Heights Property Management
NYC's first historic district — landmarked brownstones, engaged co-op boards, and postcard views of the Manhattan skyline from the Promenade.
Neighborhood Profile
What Brooklyn Heights Is Actually Like
The Character
Polished and staid.
One of Brooklyn's most upscale neighborhoods — quiet streets, landmarked facades, and residents who chose permanence over novelty.
The Anchor
The Brooklyn Heights Promenade.
Postcard-worthy views of Lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge from a cantilevered esplanade above the BQE — the defining public space of the neighborhood.
Only Here
NYC's first historic district.
Designated in 1965, the entire neighborhood is landmarked. Every facade alteration requires LPC approval — a level of architectural protection found nowhere else in Brooklyn.
The Draw
Manhattan access without Manhattan density.
Unbeatable subway access, but feels worlds apart. Two stops to Wall Street, walking distance to DUMBO, and Brooklyn Bridge Park at the bottom of the hill.

Day-to-Day in Brooklyn Heights
Transit
2/3 at Clark Street, A/C at High Street, R at Court Street, 4/5 at Borough Hall. Two stops to Lower Manhattan. Dense Citi Bike coverage along the waterfront.
Dining
Colonie for New American, Noodle Pudding for Italian, Dellarocco's for pizza. Henry Street's restaurant row is walkable and low-key — fine dining it's not, but the regulars like it that way.
Errands
Montague Street for everyday shops and services. Sahadi's on Atlantic for specialty groceries. Brooklyn Fare for upscale staples. Banks, dry cleaners, and pharmacies all within a few blocks.
Green Space
Brooklyn Bridge Park along the waterfront. Pierrepont Playground for families. The Squibb Park Bridge connects the bluff to the waterfront below — one of the best urban walks in the city.
Building Stock
Building Types in Brooklyn Heights
Pre-War Co-ops
Converted brownstones and purpose-built apartment houses with 4–20 units, engaged boards, and shared mechanical systems dating to the early 1900s. Original plaster, pocket doors, and decorative ironwork throughout.
Brownstone & Limestone Rowhouses
Single-family and 2–4 unit rowhouses along Montague, Pierrepont, and Willow Streets. Landmark facades require LPC-compliant maintenance for stoops, cornices, windows, and entryways.
Small Condo Conversions
Newer condo conversions of historic buildings — typically 6–15 units — with modern interiors behind preserved facades. Contemporary building systems balanced against landmark exterior obligations.
Pre-War Elevator Buildings
Mid-rise elevator buildings from the 1920s–40s along Clark Street and Montague. Co-op boards managing aging elevators, boilers, and facade compliance under historic district rules.
