  • The Invention of Brownstone Brooklyn Suleiman Osman Reviewed By
    67 the true subject is not the place, but the characters that give it life. In teasing out the attitudes, convictions, and values of the gentrifiers, or “brownstoners,” and the many times contradictory impulses that drove them to recreate and “reimagine” a forgotten urban landscape, Osman creates a truly memorable and powerful piece of scholarship. By the end of World War II, the area known as South Brooklyn was a “polycultural, polycentric and polyhistorical cityscape.” Disgusted with the sterility of suburbia and desperate for diversity and “authenticity,” young, highly educated professionals began moving to Brooklyn’s oldest, but now largely depressed, residential district, Brooklyn Heights. A neighborhood ravaged by the flight of wealthy residents to the nascent suburbs in the early 20th century, Brooklyn Heights’ once majestic brownstones were in severe disrepair. While the rehabilitation of these structures and the revitalizing of their urban environment were the most visible elements of this new “brownstoning” movement, its heart and soul was a “do-it-yourself”, counterculture ideology that would have a profound impact on the social, political, and physical environment of the American city. Osman argues that many of these “brownstoners” imagined themselves as urban pioneers building settlements in the wilderness”—out to reclaim, rediscover, and rehabilitate an urban environment lost to decades of decay. Brooklyn Heights quickly became the “birthplace of a new romantic urban ideal”, a jarring juxtaposition to the “dominant modernist ideology of the 1950s.” With Daniel Widis is a first-year DCRP student specializing in Brooklyn Heights providing both the ideological and Placemaking and Real Estate Development.

  • This Brooklyn Neighborhood Is Cool — and Still Affordable by Adam Bonislawski September 26, 2018 | 7:14Pm | Updated
    In search of a larger apartment with character at an affordable price, Christina Poletto and son Theodore recently moved to Sunset Park. Annie Wermiel REAL ESTATE This Brooklyn neighborhood is cool — and still affordable By Adam Bonislawski September 26, 2018 | 7:14pm | Updated Nikki Grossman had her eye on Sunset Park for some time. Formerly a resident of the Lower East Side, Grossman moved to area rental building The Hamilton in June. She says she was drawn to the 98-unit development, which opened two years ago at 968 60th St., by its amenities (which include a fitness center, landscaped roof deck and screening room) and reasonable rents (studios from $2,200, one-bedrooms from $2,350). Though less hyped than other, more celebrated Brooklyn nabes, Sunset Park’s affordable prices and low-key vibe have been luring residents from other city spots and even other counties in the state. Take Christina Poletto, 42, and her 5-year-old son Theodore, who recently relocated to the neighborhood from Rockland County. For Grossman, who grew up in nearby Gravesend, it was also a repatriation of sorts. “I had been living in Manhattan just for proximity to work, but I had been wanting to come home,” says Grossman, 40, a nurse at New York University’s main hospital. “When I learned about [The Hamilton] and all its amenities, I was very interested.” Nikki Grossman moved into The Hamilton, one of the few Sunset Park buildings to boast amenities like a gym and a screening room.
