Brooklyn Heights Water Damage Restoration

Brooklyn Heights is one of the most historically distinguished and extraordinarily prestigious neighborhoods in the entire New York City area, with approximately 22,000 residents living across an established landscape positioned along the East River waterfront in northwestern Brooklyn. The neighborhood is essentially defined by its extraordinary distinction as home to the Brooklyn Heights Historic District (designated in 1965 as the very first designated historic district in New York City and one of the earliest historic district designations in the entire United States, an extraordinary distinction of exceptional historic and preservation significance), its extraordinary Brooklyn Heights Promenade (the substantial waterfront esplanade featuring iconic Manhattan skyline views and one of the most historically significant preserved public waterfront corridors in New York City), its substantial preserved 19th century architecture featuring exceptional preserved Greek Revival, Italianate, Gothic Revival, Romanesque Revival, Queen Anne, and Colonial Revival brownstones and mansions, its position as one of the earliest developed Brooklyn neighborhoods with substantial preserved historic character from the earliest Brooklyn development, its position adjacent to Downtown Brooklyn and the Brooklyn Bridge, and its distinguished LUXURY residential character. The community is anchored by the extraordinary Brooklyn Heights Historic District (America’s first designated historic district and one of the earliest historic district designations in the United States, containing approximately 600 preserved historic buildings), the substantial Brooklyn Heights Promenade waterfront esplanade (a distinguished substantial preserved waterfront corridor with iconic Manhattan skyline views), significant residential property throughout including distinguished LUXURY preserved historic brownstones and mansions, dense multi-family construction in historic converted buildings, the historic Montague Street and Court Street commercial corridors, and cultural landmarks including the Brooklyn Historical Society (a distinguished cultural institution). The neighborhood is positioned along Montague Street, Court Street, Clinton Street, Henry Street, Hicks Street, and Cadman Plaza providing extensive transportation corridor access. The community has an established distinguished affluent population with established professional and executive residential populations who prize the neighborhood’s extraordinary preserved historic character and prestigious LUXURY setting. The housing stock is defined by the extraordinary preserved historic Greek Revival, Italianate, Gothic Revival, Romanesque Revival, Queen Anne, and Colonial Revival brownstones and mansions from the mid to late 19th century (many featuring exceptional original architectural elements including original stoops, cornices, decorative facades, distinguished stained glass, ornate plasterwork, and distinguished interior architectural elements of substantial historic and architectural value). Many Brooklyn Heights properties feature exceptional historic architectural details, original 19th century woodwork, custom period millwork, distinguished stained glass, ornate plasterwork, and valuable original architectural elements of substantial historic significance.
