West Brighton
"Best known for the turn of the century homes"
When it comes to turn of the century architecture, not this century, the prior one, there are not many communities that feature as many homes that are reminiscent of the early days of Staten Island as West Brighton.
While driving the streets in West Brighton, you may come across an occasional pothole in your travels. However, what it reveals is the cobble stone roadways that used to be the material of choice when roads were developed in this area. The cobble stone roadway was probably a significant upgrade to Staten Island roadways, which were mostly dirt when these streets were first developed.
Richmond University Medical Center, formerly St. Vincent’s Hospital, calls West Brighton its home. Some of West Brighton’s more prominent homes are situated around the hospital.
