Attractions
Prospect Heights is a neighborhood in the northwest of the New York City borough of Brooklyn. The interior portion of the neighborhood consists mostly of brownstone-style residential rowhouse buildings, some built as early as 1890, although some blocks, such as Lincoln and St. Johns place between Underhill and Washington Avenues,include larger multi-apartment buildings. Though it is invariably thought of as up-and-coming, Prospect Heights is in fact a fairly well-established and diverse middle-class outpost. It offers excellent train access to Manhattan, a bounty of green space thanks to Prospect Park, and reasonable rental prices.
