    What's special

    Gorgeous Large & Spacious Apt with Modern Upgrades Throughout Bay Ridge was originally known as Yellow Hook for the hue of the yellowish soil observed by the original Dutch settlers. This name was changed in 1853 after yellow fever struck the area and residents realized what an ill fit it was given the circumstances. The new name was given due to the proximity of the neighborhood to New York Bay excellent views of which were visible from the ridge that has now become Ridge Boulevard. These views attracted wealthy people who built extravagant summer homes along Shore Road overlooking the water many of which are still standing today and worth multiple-millions of dollars. Once the 4th Avenue Subway (now the R line) was extended in 1915 however many Manhattan workers looking for quieter surroundings began to flow in transforming the area into a middle-class neighborhood. Gorgeous newly renovated apt with hardwood floors throughout and great sunlight. King/Queen sz bedroom plus spacious kitchen with great counter space. Modern full upgraded full bath included with soaking tub. Near shops restaurants and transportation.
