The neighborhood

Bedford-Stuyvesant

The eastern stretch of Bed-Stuy along Fulton Street has a grittier, more authentic energy than the polished western blocks. Stuyvesant Avenue's brownstones are among the finest in the borough, and the neighborhood's deep-rooted Black community supports a growing local business scene.
