119 Prospect Place

Brooklyn · built 1884


This four-unit residential building at 119 Prospect Place is nestled on a tree-lined block in a classic brownstone Brooklyn neighborhood. City property records date its construction to 1884, a period when this area of Park Slope and Boerum Hill was rapidly developing with new housing.

Described in city records as a multifamily walk-up, it contributes to the historic character of these sought-after blocks. The property sits on block 1150, lot 61, a common arrangement for the residential buildings that define this part of Brooklyn.

As one of four residential units on the lot, this building reflects the enduring appeal of these late 19th-century structures that continue to serve as homes in a vibrant urban setting.
