South Slope is a quiet, laid-back, mashup of a Brooklyn neighborhood. Historical landmarks and treelined streets of row houses coexist with stretches of rugged industrial buildings. Nestled between the larger, bustling Park Slope and Sunset Park hoods, the more relaxed South Slope has come into its own in recent years as a destination for quality bars, restaurants and cafes.
This HUGE landscaped green space—478 acres!—offers something very rare to find in NYC: peace and quiet. You won’t see many other people as you stroll the trails that wind through historic tombstones and soak in spectacular views of rolling hills lined with trees of every color. The koi pond and Civil War monuments are favorite stops. This National Historic Landmark is an underrated beauty of Brooklyn.
