85 Fort Greene, Brooklyn NY Apartments for Rent

About Fort Greene

Fort Greene is just as green as it sounds, where leafy streets and Fort Greene Park meet historic homes, a thriving arts scene, and easy access to Manhattan. With bustling flea markets, trendy boutiques, fabulous restaurants, and a rich literary and artistic tradition, Fort Greene attracts those looking for a slower pace of living without sacrificing the vibrancy of urban life. Historic brownstones and rowhouses make up much of its real estate — it's common to find neighbors catching up on their stoops — while renters can find prewar buildings, elevator high-rises, and new developments. Intense Brooklyn pride is in evidence on the main drag of Fulton Street, where a Notorious B.I.G. quote is painted on the side of a prominent building: “Spread love it’s the Brooklyn way."
