With its tree-lined streets and welcoming community, Prospect Heights is a wonderful tight-knit community to come home to. The Grand Army Plaza at Mount Prospect Park is probably the first thing you’ll notice, especially the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Arch monument. The Saturday market is held at the plaza, which makes buying groceries all the more fun!
Across from the arch is the Brooklyn Public Library, one of the community’s iconic buildings. The Brooklyn Museum is close by on Eastern Parkway – the same thoroughfare that holds the West Indian Day Parade on Labor Day. The Botanic Garden is in walking distance of both attractions and features acres of cherry blossoms.
Vanderbilt and Washington Avenues act as the main commercial district, scattered with shops, restaurants, and bars. Locals enjoy the famous lemon ricotta pancakes at Tom’s Restaurant plus sweet treats at Ample Hills Creamery. Prospect Heights has a lot to do and see – like a Nets game at Barclays Center.
