Neighborhood

Bay Ridge’s name can be taken quite literally, seeing as the neighborhood is situated on the ridge of New York’s Upper Bay in the bustling borough of Brooklyn. This urban, coastal oasis is known for its picturesque residential streets and slight seclusion from big city living.

Though Bay Ridge is an urban neighborhood, many residents applaud this coastal town for its ability to offer a suburban vibe and family-friendly atmosphere amidst its New York City location. Apartments, houses, condos, and townhomes range from cozy to luxury, so there’s something for everyone in this welcoming community.

Towering trees line the residential and commercial streets of Bay Ridge, giving it a park-like feel. And speaking of parks, this neighborhood’s entire coastline is covered by community parks featuring waterfront lawns, tall trees, and recreational amenities.

Bed bugs beware

This building has had several units infested with bedbugs as recent as August of this year. Yet the landlord has falsely documented on new leases that there hasn’t been any.

8/15/15

Great location, charming

The building is absolutely charming and in a great location. The apartments have wonderful prewar charm. Generally love the building and the tenants; the only real negative is the super. He is difficult to reach, he can be very rude, and ignores people who are looking for help. Most of the tenants seem to agree that the super is terrible. The owner of the building is great though. The landlord controls the heat, and I often find my apartment gets way too warm in the winter, but that's a small complaint. Overall great building. I looked at so many apartments in Bay Ridge before I found this one, and I feel like I hit the jackpot with this place.
