Dumbo

With Manhattan skyline, waterfront access, a thriving art scene and charming architectural splendor, DUMBO has become one of Brooklyn’s most vibrant neighborhoods. However, DUMBO (short for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) wasn’t always thriving. Less than two decades ago, DUMBO Real Estate was largely deserted and dark. A few artists and transients inhabited its neglected spaces. Today, district improvement projects have transformed this Brooklyn neighborhood into a center for art studios, tech companies, and luxury homes. Abandoned warehouses have been converted into prime DUMBO Real Estate and where trash once piled along sidewalks now stands designer boutiques, independent bookstores, and French bakeries.

In DUMBO, what you see is what you get; and what you get is breathtaking skyline views of Manhattan. Many New Yorkers consider DUMBO “the next SoHo,” for its energetic and artistic 24-hour community just steps from the Brooklyn Bridge. DUMBO Real Estate is the only Brooklyn neighborhood with millions of sq.ft. in landmark buildings combined with a vibrant history and stunning views. With events like the annual Art Under the Bridge Festival and The New York Photo Festival, DUMBO’s reputation as New York’s artistic hub continues to gain notoriety. Trendy shops and bars complete with manicured waterfront green spaces and historic enclaves, such as Vinegar Hill’s cobblestone streets, transport residents to Brooklyn’s days of yore.

DUMBO Transportation

If there’s any Brooklyn neighborhood that can be in the center of it all, it’s DUMBO Real Estate. Dubbed as the next “SoHo,” DUMBO is an ultra-hip neighborhood easily accessible by land or water located just across the East River from Manhattan Island. A quick ride on the subway will transport you to Manhattan. Or take the scenic route across the water on the East River Ferry. On a beautiful day, stroll across the Brooklyn Bridge and into the Lower East Side.
