Brooklyn
Sublets in Prospect Heights
Compact & central
A small neighborhood that happens to sit next to the Brooklyn Museum, the Botanic Garden, the central library and Prospect Park. Vanderbilt Avenue is the spine, the blocks are low and leafy, and nine subway lines stop at the bottom of it.

Vanderbilt Avenue is a destination strip in its own right, and Washington Avenue is catching up.

Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, both within a few blocks.
