"Most beautiful selection of shorefront homes in the country!"

Bay Ridge, Brooklyn is the most beautiful place in all of New York City, and one of the best in the country! Sandwiched in between two highways and right in the shadow of the beautiful, modern Verrazano Bridge, Bay Ridge has a little bit of everything. The blocks between Shore Road and 3rd Avenue between 90th and 75th Streets are filled with the most beautiful shorefront mansions in the whole country! There are even some very old Victorian mansions lining the streets closer to the 3rd Avenue. The streets are also filled with beautiful trees and gardens especially near the richer homes of the neighborhood. During the summer, Bay Ridge's boardwalk, which is located down the hill from the Shore Road is a magic place to be due to the majestic sea breezes, which sometimes blow even a couple of roads down from the coast. Meanwhile, the 3rd, 4th, 5th Avenues, and 86th Street are filled with all kinds of different shops and Italian-European-Arabic restaurants. For such a nice place, the commute to Manhattan is not all that bad, as it is surrounded by the BQE and the Belt Parkway. Also, the neighborhood has straight access to NYC's beautiful Manhattan Beach, and to beautiful towns in Staten Island and Long Island. Overall, Bay Ridge is a great, and exceptionally beautiful place inside a busy, ugly city!
