"Quiet street for hipsters"

Conselyea is a pretty good little street in the neighborhood. It's the next street east of the street I lived on for a couple of years and I wouldn't have minded living on it at all. It's a really residential street. It's all old apartment buildings that has a mix of some of the long time residents and hipsters -- nowadays the hipsters are definitely the bigger of the two. It's not as tree lined or neighborhood looking as a street like Devoe. But, it's not bad. The apartment buildings in the neighborhood, in general, kind of look they aren't real. They kind of look like old movie set apartments and that's no different on this street.
The nice thing about Conselyea is that it's just a short block away from Graham so you get all of the great restaurants and little shops. There are ton of bars on and just off of Graham. The L train is right there. But, there's nothing on Conselyea aside from apartment buildings so it's a bit quieter than Graham or Metropolitan. It's not my favorite street in the area, but it's a pretty good street. And, the rent is a lot better on Conselyea than it is in a lot of other parts of this neighborhood.
Pros
  • Rent to space ratio
  • Proximity to bars and restaurants
  • Proximity to transportation
Cons
  • Very hipster
  • No green

"Pizza, Pizza, Pizza"

The one great thing about Brooklyn is the PIZZA! Nearby this street, you'll find Carmine's Pizza, a great place to get a slice and beer! I really love Brooklyn for that reason. Cheap eats! Otherwise, this street doesn't really have a lot happening, though you might impressed by its cleanliness and housing availablity. All in all, I think that this is a good street to start with in Brooklyn
