Downtown Brooklyn is not only New York’s third-largest business district – it continues to grow and prosper into a pivotal education center. The cityscape around this community is largely made up of historic converted homes and state-of-the-art office buildings. In addition to NYU’s Tandon School of Engineering, New York City College of Technology and Long Island University – Brooklyn reside here.
Once students are done with classes for the day, many can be found enjoying the fresh air at Cadman Plaza Park. Points of interest (as well as means of travel) include the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges. Even with these nearby, locals prefer to commute using the NYC Subway.
Brooklyn’s admiration for art and culture doesn’t go unnoticed – it’s guaranteed you’ll find an entertainment venue that has either a play, band performance, or film viewing party some night during the workweek. When it comes to shopping, you’ll find that Fulton Street will meet your needs.
