Welcome to Sunset Park, one of the premier residential neighborhoods in New York and one of the best places to live in Brooklyn. Named after a majestical 24-acre public park of the same name, Sunset Park is a sprawling 280-acre neighborhood that borders Bay Ridge to the south, Park Slope to the north, and Borough Park to the east. Initially occupied by the Canarsee Indians until the first European settlement in 1636, this area went mostly undeveloped until the late 20th century, when large groups of immigrants started settling here due to the affordable housing prices. Today, Sunset Park is a cultural melting pot of beauty and is considered to be one of New York City’s hottest, up-and-coming neighborhoods.
Known for its Romanesque and Renaissance Revival architecture, a portion of Sunset Park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is the largest historic district in the Northeast United States. Home to its own unique and bustling Chinatown, Sunset Park offers some of the best Chinese food you will find in New York. A booming multicultural neighborhood with plenty of green space, walkable streets, and good schools, Sunset Park offers an assortment of local shops, restaurants, and bars that you will find along the commercial avenues of 7th and 8th. Served by the BMT Fourth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway, you will find multiple stations along 4th Avenue, making Sunset Park an easily accessible neighborhood popular among professionals who commute Downtown for work.
Home to many college students and families that enjoy the affordable housing prices and raw beauty of Sunset Park, this historic section of Brooklyn boasts some of the best views of the Statue of Liberty, which you can find at its namesake park. Once a Revolutionary War battlefield and final resting place for many famous New Yorkers, the 478-acre Green-Wood Cemetary is another popular attraction among tourists and locals. Take a stroll through this public cemetery, and be sure to bring your camera for beautiful photos of Manhattan from a distance. Spend a day exploring Brooklyn Chinatown, and be sure to bring your appetite. The sun never goes down on all the fun you can have living in Sunset Park Brooklyn.
