DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN
Downtown Brooklyn is the third largest central business district in New
York City, following Midtown Manhattan and Lower Manhattan. There are
numerous high-rise buildings which give the area its own unique skyline.
Downtown is a vital, lively hub of the borough, where commercial,
government, and financial interests converge. The area includes Brooklyn
Borough Hall, Kings County Courthouse, MetroTech Center, Brooklyn
Academy of Music, and the New York Transit Museum. Fulton Mall is a
pedestrian street mall that is home to over 230 stores. This shopping
strip offers many discount-clothing shops, but it also includes famous
retailers.
