Eye on Real Estate
Boats bobbing in the waters of Sheepshead Bay. Bed-Stuy landmarks designed by famed late 19th-century architect Montrose Morris.
These two photogenic sights, which sound so dissimilar, are connected by an eight-mile-long artery — Nostrand Avenue.
So yeah, there’s busy vehicular traffic in some spots on this north-south street. But it’s a rewarding route for an urban hike that will take you through several fascinating Brooklyn neighborhoods. Or urban hikes, plural.
