Living in Brooklyn

Parks

Heading towards the center of the borough, Prospect Park, Central Park’s cousin, is a must-see park covering hundreds of acres. As you wind your way around the park, you can visit Prospect Park Zoo and the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens.

Transportation

Brooklyn may have one of the best mass transportation setups in the world. Every subway line except the 7 Train passes through the borough, and with easy transfers to express trains at Atlantic Avenue, most of New York City is just 30 minutes away. Atlantic Avenue is also home to Brooklyn’s own Long Island Railroad terminal, and the commuter line provides even faster access to Manhattan, a quick trip to JFK Airport, and direct routes to Long Island’s beaches. For those few residents who don’t live within a few blocks of a subway system, buses fill in the gaps. Brooklynites don’t need to sell their cars either — while you’ll only want to use your car when you head out of the city, most luxury buildings offer private parking spaces or garages.
