STUDENT RESIDENCE

NEIGHBORHOOD The student residence is located in Heights, one of Brooklyn’s most lively and popular neighborhoods. Originally known as Brooklyn Village, was New York City’s first suburb. This beautiful neighborhood is known for its cozy, residential feel with its tree-lined streets and many brownstone rowhouses. The Brooklyn Heights Promenade, a favorite spot among locals, offers panoramic views of lower Manhattan, The Statue of Liberty, and The Brooklyn Bridge. This neighborhood offers the best of both worlds with a more relaxing atmosphere yet minutes away from Manhattan.

The student residence is located just a 10 minutes’ walk to St. Francis College and only 1 subway stop from Manhattan. This gives all our young students easy access to the school and the activities taking place each day.

HOUSE LOCATION The residence is located on 55 Clark Street, Brooklyn (NY. 11201) and is shared with other students from Brooklyn School of Languages.
