About Carroll Gardens

Carroll Gardens is at once the heart of old-school Brooklyn and a showcase for the borough's brownstone boom. The neighborhood has long been known for its red-sauce Italian joints and lively street life. But now, staples like Caputo's Bake Shop and Monteleone's Bakery and Café abut upscale stroller shops, yoga studios and fro-yo joints. Despite the newcomers, the neighborhood still feels like a small town, one of the few places where you might know your neighbors, your postman and your butcher by name.
