181 Berkeley Place

Brooklyn · built 1882


Tucked into the historic blocks of Park Slope and Boerum Hill, 181 Berkeley Place offers a glimpse into Brooklyn's late 19th-century development. City property records date its construction to 1882, placing it within the period when this charming neighborhood was rapidly taking shape.

This residential building, identified by city records as a one and two-family home, contributes to the area's enduring character. With two residential units on its lot, it reflects the flexible living arrangements common in these brownstone Brooklyn streets.

As part of block 1061, lot 71, 181 Berkeley Place stands as a piece of the rich architectural and social fabric that defines this sought-after part of Brooklyn.
