About East

Flatbush

East Flatbush, located between Prospect Park and Canarsie, is a residential and commercial New York neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and busy retail corridors. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Church Avenue near Flatbush Avenue, where bakeries, barbershops, produce markets, and takeout counters keep the sidewalks in motion. Brick rowhouses, detached homes, and mid-century apartment buildings shape a streetscape of porches, stoops, and small front gardens. Wingate Park adds ballfields and shaded paths, while nearby Prospect Park widens the outdoor routine. Community pillars include Peaches HotHouse, Lips Café, and Kings Theatre, anchoring nights out beyond the local avenues.

General Residence District

R6 zoning districts are widely mapped in built-up, medium-density areas in Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx. The character of R6 districts can range from neighborhoods with a diverse mix of building types and heights to large-scale tower in the park developments such as Ravenswood in Queens and Homecrest in Brooklyn. Developers can choose between two sets of bulk regulations. Standard height factor regulations, introduced in 1961, produce small multi-family buildings on small zoning lots and, on larger lots, tall buildings that are set back from the street. Optional Quality Housing regulations produce high lot coverage buildings within height limits that often reflect the scale of older, pre-1961 apartment buildings in the neighborhood.
