Kensington, located between Prospect Park and Greenwood Cemetery, is a residential and low-rise New York neighborhood with prewar brick apartments and leafy side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Church Avenue near McDonald Avenue, where produce markets, longtime bakeries, and small cafés line the sidewalks beside the elevated tracks. Ditmas Park’s Victorian-era blocks brush the northern edge, while mid-century co-ops and walk-ups define many interior streets. The Parade Ground and Prospect Park’s southern entrances shape daily routines with ballfields and broad lawns. Cortelyou Road’s food-and-coffee corridor sits nearby for a more café-forward scene. The F and G trains at Church Av and Ditmas Av connect the area to the rest of the city.

R5
Low-Density Contextual Residence District
R5 districts allow a variety of housing at a higher density than permitted in R3-2 and R4 districts. The floor area ratio (FAR) of 1.25 typically produces three-and four-story attached houses and small apartment houses. With a height limit of 40 feet, R5 districts provide a transition between lower- and higher-density neighborhoods and are widely mapped in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx. Portions of Windsor Terrace and Ocean Parkway in Brooklyn are R5 districts.
