A tiny, historic cobblestone enclave in ZIP 11201 tucked beside DUMBO - Belgian-block streets, Federal-era townhouses, and a hidden, timeless feel. Here is what it is actually like to live here.
Vinegar Hill is one of the smallest and most atmospheric neighborhoods in Brooklyn, a few blocks of Belgian-block streets and preserved Federal-era and 19th-century townhouses tucked between DUMBO and the Navy Yard. It feels like a preserved pocket of old New York, quiet and hidden.
Its scarcity and history are the whole appeal - there are very few homes, and they rarely trade. DUMBO's restaurants, the waterfront, and the F, A, and C trains are all a short walk. For buyers who want a genuinely rare, historic Brooklyn address, Vinegar Hill is unlike anywhere else.
Preserved Belgian-block streets from old New York.
