Living off the grid in Wallabout, Brooklyn: Between Classon and Carlton Avenues from Flushing Avenue to Myrtle Avenue lies a 22 block neighborhood that shares a name with the nearby Wallabout Bay.  It’s a hidden and almost secret neighborhood that not many know about, mainly because of the lack of proximity to the subway and other forms of public transportation.  However, this vibrant and diverse neighborhood has a lot more to offer than meets the eye. 

 Filled with streets line by rustic and charming row house, it has a nice and removed country sort of feeling that you can’t find anywhere else in Brooklyn.   This buried neighborhood also boasts the largest concentration of pre-Civil War wood frame houses in the city.  Co-ops and town house prices reflect the true value of the neighborhood, and we can only expect prices to rise as more people and families discover the appeal this community has to offer.  Fort Green is only blocks away, yet the two areas offer something uniquely different for respective tenants.  Read this recent article in the New York Times to learn more about Wallabout, Brooklyn.
