Technological Haven in Brooklyn
Dumbo, short for "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge," is a waterfront up-and-coming Brooklyn neighborhood closest to Manhattan. The neighborhood itself was originally a ferry landing, and the architecture is noted for its 19th and 20th century industrial and warehouse complexes. It is a popular area for art galleries and tech startups, earning a new nickname as "the center of the Brooklyn Tech Triangle."
The neighborhood is now a popular area for residents as well, as it is highly convenient to Manhattan. Many of the former industrial buildings have been revitalized into spacious luxury condos and lofts. If you're interested in moving to Dumbo, contact us to learn more about the community!
