Sunset Park

A hillside park and a working waterfront.

Sunset Park combines residential blocks of rowhouses and apartment buildings with commercial avenues and an extensive industrial waterfront. The elevated park that gives the neighborhood its name provides a broad perspective across the surrounding city.

Fifth and Eighth avenues are important local corridors, while the waterfront has its own mix of established industrial uses and adapted buildings. Homes here sit within a neighborhood whose character changes considerably between the hillside and the harbor.
