Walking in Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn

[krulltime]

Ok so yesterday was such a beautiful clear day. So I decided to visit Brooklyn and take a bunch of photos of one of the most beautiful and expensive neighborhoods in NYC. This is ofcourse Brooklyn Heights. A nighborhood that seems to be stuck in time. New construction is ofcourse rarely allowed and it has to comply with those complicated zonings. Anyway I am glad, because like the West Village, this is one of NYC most charming low scale neighborhoods. Ok I hope you enjoy my photo tour.


Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn
