Given the fact that Brownstone Brooklynites and Manhattanites are already buying into our nabe, holding off may not be good advice if you are looking for a house in a historic district. Anyone who characterizes the homes here as "diamonds in the rough" has obviously never been here. You can see some great photos of the area on the Landmarks Preservation Commission website, click on "Fiske Terrace/Midwood Park Historic District."
Many of the apartment buildings around us are becoming condos and also selling. We are seeing the changes of new restaurants and shops along Cortelyou Road, as well as the new Pomme de Terre French place on Newkirk Avenue.
And "far out in flatbush" is 5 stops on the "Q" from 7th Avenue. If you get off at Cortelyou Road, be sure to try the Tibetan Cafe located right next door to the station.
