Cypress Hills, located between East New York and Woodhaven, is a residential and hillside Brooklyn neighborhood with a ridge-top cemetery and a patchwork of brick rowhouses. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Jamaica Avenue near the Cypress Hills subway station, where small bakeries, produce markets, and longtime storefronts keep the sidewalks busy. Highland Park’s wooded paths and ballfields shape daily routines at the Brooklyn–Queens line. The Cypress Hills Cemetery’s rolling terrain gives the area its uncommon topography and long views. Local pillars include Nowadays for music and community events, the historic Wyckoff House Museum, and the Ridgewood Reservoir in Highland Park.
