Park Slope
Down-to-earth Park Slope is a residential area of tree-lined streets and historic brownstones in Brooklyn. It's known for its open-minded community of families and young professionals. The mix of indie boutiques, laid-back bars and casual restaurants along 5th Avenue and pockets of 7th Avenue caters to the diverse area. Locals and visitors head to sprawling Prospect Park for outdoor concerts, picnics and jogging.
