Bedford Stuyvesant

Brooklyn

Bedford-Stuyvesant (often referred to as Bed-Stuy) is a trove of calm, tree-lined streets, many featuring Victorian-style homes. The high concentration of 19th-century architectural gems provides a glimpse into old New York’s sophistication by way of wide stoops, stately stained-glass accents, and waist-high wrought iron entry gates. Today, the neighborhood feels contemporary with its stylish boutiques, trendy restaurants and local cafés centered on Bedford and Tompkins Avenues.
