Fort Greene is a historic brownstone neighborhood centered around Fort Greene Park — with beautiful 19th-century row houses, townhouses, and some of the finest Victorian mansions in Brooklyn. Most buildings have flat roofs, often original built-up tar systems or torch-down replacements from the 1980s-90s.
On South Portland Ave, South Elliot Pl, Cumberland St, Carlton Ave, and Washington Park, we handle historic brownstone flat roof restorations with strict attention to landmark requirements. Most of Fort Greene falls within the Fort Greene Historic District — we handle Landmarks Preservation Commission submissions for any visible work.
Local details (11205, 11217): ZIP codes: 11205, 11217. The Fort Greene Historic District covers most of the neighborhood. Common issues: century-old built-up roofs at end of life, cornice and parapet deterioration, chimney flashing leaks, and the special challenges of working on attached brownstone roofs where access is shared between neighbors.
