Fort Greene

Offers a wide range of housing options in a neighborhood where architectural beauty meets modern lifestyle.

Welcome to Fort Greene

Fort Greene offers a rich mix of history, culture, and classic Brooklyn charm—set against a backdrop of brownstone-lined streets, landmark architecture, and one of the borough’s most beloved parks. Located near Downtown Brooklyn, Clinton Hill, and Prospect Heights, Fort Greene homes for sale provide buyers with access to green space, transportation, and a thriving creative community.
 
From 19th-century townhouses to loft-style condos and co-ops, Fort Greene offers a wide range of housing options in a neighborhood where architectural beauty meets modern lifestyle.
 

Architecture, History & Housing Options

Fort Greene is known for its well-preserved brownstones, limestone townhouses, and pre-war co-ops, many of which fall within the Fort Greene Historic District. These homes offer character and craftsmanship rarely found in new development, and often feature original details like stoops, moldings, and fireplaces.
 
Buyers will also find several boutique condo conversions and newer full-service buildings, especially closer to Flatbush Avenue and Downtown Brooklyn, offering amenities like elevators, gyms, and roof decks.
 

Culture, Dining & Neighborhood Life

Fort Greene is deeply rooted in the arts. Anchored by the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), the neighborhood is home to theaters, galleries, and performance spaces that contribute to its creative energy.
 
DeKalb and Lafayette Avenues are lined with locally loved restaurants, wine bars, and cafes. Standouts include:
 
  • Miss Ada – Mediterranean fare with a garden patio

  • Walter’s – upscale comfort food and cocktails across from the park

  • Olea, Colonia Verde, and Peck’s – casual neighborhood staples

  • Greenlight Bookstore – a community hub for author events and browsing
The weekend Fort Greene Park Greenmarket and several grocery stores, fitness studios, and shops support daily living without needing to leave the neighborhood.
 

Fort Greene Park & Community

Fort Greene Park—one of the oldest in Brooklyn—is the center of neighborhood life. Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux (of Central Park fame), it features open lawns, shaded paths, a farmers market, and the iconic Prison Ship Martyrs Monument.
 
The neighborhood’s mix of open space, architectural integrity, and cultural offerings make it highly appealing to a wide range of buyers.
 

Transit & Accessibility

Fort Greene offers excellent access to public transportation, with the C, G, B, D, Q, N, R, 2, 3, 4, and 5 trains all nearby at Atlantic Terminal and Fulton Street. CitiBike stations, local bus routes, and proximity to Downtown Brooklyn make commuting easy and flexible—whether by train, bike, or car.
