Anchored by Prospect Park’s eastern edge, 11225 spans parts of Crown Heights and Prospect Lefferts Gardens, mixing early-20th-century brownstones with lively Caribbean roots and creative energy. Expect a classic four-season NYC climate, with leafy summers by the park’s Long Meadow and crisp fall strolls to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Prospect Park Zoo. Coffee culture and dining thrive along Franklin, Rogers, Flatbush, and Nostrand—think jerk and patties, Trinidadian doubles, cozy cafes, and new bistros—while weekend routines include the Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket, yoga and fitness studios, and bike loops around the park. Everyday conveniences abound with Key Food, Foodtown, corner produce markets, and indie shops; nights lean low-key with neighborhood bars and music spots. Per Zillow Market Trends from the past few months, the area’s median asking rent is around $3,000, with most listings ranging roughly $2,200–$3,800. Tree-lined blocks, family- and dog-friendly park access, and a mix of long-time residents and newcomers create a friendly, walkable, transit-easy vibe, with the 2/5, B/Q, and 3/4 lines close by.
