Prospect Heights

Sandwiched between all the good stuff: Prospect Park, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and Barclays Center. Vanderbilt Avenue's restaurant row is popping, and Washington Avenue's catching up fast. Still got some original Caribbean spots mixing with the new wine bars. The parking's terrible but who cares when you've got the best cultural institutions in Brooklyn at your doorstep?
