About Clinton Hill

Perched at an elevation of up to 95 feet, one of the highest in the borough, Clinton Hill blends storied residential charm with a creative, intellectual energy. You’ll see hundreds of years of architecture on display, much of which is preserved in the Clinton Hill Historic District: grand Victorian mansions, brick townhouses, carriage houses, Gothic elements, and more. Leafy streets and modest green spaces give the neighborhood a relaxed vibe, while sizable Fort Greene Park and Prospect Park are also nearby. The Pratt Institute — known for engineering, architecture, and fine arts education — adds a creative flair that feels fitting for the area. Sidewalks are dotted with cozy restaurants and wine bars along with eclectic small businesses, from vintage shops to record stores to homeware boutiques.
