Carroll Gardens

Front gardens and a neighborhood rhythm.

Carroll Gardens takes much of its visual identity from the deep front gardens of its historic rowhouses. Brownstones and brick homes line residential streets, while Carroll Park and the shops along Court and Smith streets anchor everyday destinations.

Townhouses, apartments in converted houses, and newer residential buildings all form part of the housing landscape. The generous planted spaces in front of many homes give these blocks a character that stands apart from denser parts of Brooklyn.
