Fort Greene Neighborhood Guide

268 Cumberland Street

By Alex Cho on August 12, 2009

The one thing missing from a great deal of new developments is charm. And let’s be honest, what’s the point of living in Brooklyn if there’s no charm?

Well 268 Cumberland Street has plenty of neighborhood appeal. Less than a block away from Fort Greene Park, the area surrounding the building is quiet, with trees lining the mostly brownstone block. The exterior of the building has a mosaic of 19th Century-inspired architecture and the façade is consistently classic with redbrick and zinc-accents.

If you’re a foodie, Fortè is the building for you. Located in the heart of the BAM Cultural District, residents easy have access to a variety of culinary delights, plus a tremendous amount of local art, music and shopping.
