Welcome to Flatbush

BAY RIDGE is located on the southern tip of Brooklyn adjacent to the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge with waterfront views and a vibrant commercial district along 3rd and 5th Avenues. Its architecture consists of 19th century multi-family brownstones and townhouses, pre-war co-op and rental buildings, and mixed-use retail/rental walk-ups. Bay Ridge is home to generational homeowners, as well as to younger families and professionals who buy and renovate some of its older housing stock to market value. Cultural, religious and educational institutions abound. The neighborhood is also a food destination, with its array of restaurants offering a variety of international cuisine, all reflective of local and nearby residents.
