Wedged between Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, and the edge of Fort Greene, Downtown Brooklyn can be hard to pinpoint. One thing is certainùit's booming. Led by the emergence of MetroTech as a business nexus, the revitalization of the shopping and dining scenes, and the opening of new hotels, Downtown Brooklyn is now an exciting place to live, especially in one of the new high-rise, full-service luxury buildings that have appeared in the past few years. The area is highly walkable and served by excellent public transportation that can get you almost anywhere in the city in a reasonable amount of time.
