Property Description for 55 Eastern Parkway, 3-D
LIVE LARGE! This pretty and serene alcove studio is bigger than many 1-bedrooms! Its spacious, open and airy and allows for a wonderful separation between the living area and the bedroom. There is a gorgeous, open, renovated kitchen with stone counters, top-of-the-line appliances and more storage than youll know what to do with! Step down into the gracious living area, which has ample space for entertaining and dining. The generously-sized sleeping alcove is peaceful and sweet and large enough for a queen-size bed and then some! The windowed bathroom is a fresh mix of pristine tile work, modern hardware and carefully preserved original details. Other features include uncommonly low maintenance, high ceilings, beautiful herringbone parquet floors and a wall of closets. 55 Eastern Parkway is a beautifully maintained, pet-friendly prewar coop with a grand, welcoming lobby, an elevator, laundry, additional storage and bike storage (upon availability) and a lovely common courtyard. It's situated on the nation's first parkway, designed by Vaux & Olmsted, and fashioned after the Champs-Elysees. Youre across the street from Prospect Park and Brooklyns cultural heart: The Botanic Garden, Library and Museum. The 2/3 trains are right outside your door (allowing for the easiest and fastest possible commute) and you're a heartbeat away from all of the neighborhoods destination cafes and restaurants. This combination of space, style, VALUE and perfect location represents a rare opportunity that should not be missed!

Prospect Heights | Brooklyn
Quick Profile
Prospect Heights is a small residential neighborhood surrounded by big attractions. It’s rich in culture and offers the perfect blend of old Brooklyn charm and modern-day hipness.
Residents of this tight-knit community include young professionals, families and long-time residents. It’s a walkers paradise - just steps from Prospect Park and a short walking distance to neighborhoods like Downtown Brooklyn, Fort Green and Clinton. You’re close to culture too. Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Library, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Brooklyn Academy of Music and the Barclays Center are all nearby.
Prospect Heights is bordered by Flatbush Avenue to the west, Washington Avenue to the east, Atlantic Avenue and Dean Street to the north and Eastern Parkway to the south.
Prospect Heights, like many areas of New York City, was first inhabited by indigenous tribes and eventually settled by the Dutch and turned into farmland.
A significant part of the Revolutionary War was fought in Prospect Heights and the surrounding areas. Known as the Battle of Brooklyn, it was the first military engagement following the Declaration of Independence. Things didn’t go so well for American forces so they retreated and the British occupied Manhattan for several years after the Battle of Brooklyn.
In 1867, the opening of Prospect Park caused major housing growth in Prospect Heights. The middle-class neighborhood was soon populated by Jewish, Italian, and Irish workers. Many of which were shop-owners or employed as laborers in nearby factories.
Housing in Prospect Heights includes single-family row houses, historic townhouses, co-ops, and new luxury condos. The median listed price for a 1-bedroom in Prospect Heights is $680,000 with an average price per square foot is $944.
The neighborhood's commercial artery runs along Vanderbilt Avenue and Washington Avenue. The variety of businesses adds to the charm of the neighborhood. They include bars, pubs, restaurants and mom-and-pop stores of all types. The shops and eateries are a perfect alternative to the big-name attractions that bracket the neighborhood. It's a little bit of everything in this neighborhood.
Subways are plentiful in Prospect Heights. Its proximity to Manhattan is another perk of the neighborhood. It's about a half-hour train ride. The B, D, N, Q, R, 2, 3, 4 and 5 subway lines all serve the Atlantic Avenue/Barclays Center station. 2, 3, 4, B and Q trains cover the neighborhood and the A and C trains are nearby too.
