We drove through Vinegar Hill on Sunday on the way to Brooklyn Bridge Park and were reminded how fun it is to find pockets of charming brownstones out of context. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, Vinegar Hill was an Irish working class neighborhood (where many of the maids for nearby Brooklyn Heights lived). The area was cut off from the rest of Brooklyn when the BQE was built. Now that several of its streets are designated historic districts and Dumbo is booming, its fortunes have obviously changed. Does anyone know if any of these houses have been on the market in the recent past? How are they priced versus other brownstone nabes?
