Welcome to Sunset Park

Sunset Park's development surged during the 19th-century industrial boom as a major shipping hub, but declined as trucking replaced boat shipping. Today, the neighborhood is home to predominantly Latin American and Chinese immigrants, with 8th Avenue serving as Brooklyn's Chinatown, filled with noodle shops, dim sum restaurants, and produce markets. Sunset Park's elevated location offers stunning views of the NY Harbor and Manhattan skyline. The area, accessible by the D, M, N, and R subway lines, has diverse housing options, with the median sales price at $730K. Rents have risen with nearby Park Slope's gentrification but remain affordable.
