The Founding Originally settled by freed slaves who were among the first to purchase land for homes, Bedford-Stuyvesant is an area where Brooklynites have effectively negotiated the difficult balance between protecting meaningful historic places and developing and reshaping public resources. Over the years, many of Bedford-Stuyvesant s residents have transplanted their own cultures and experiences to the historically rich community. The Dutch were the first among the colonial settlers. In the 1630s and 1640s, the Dutch West India Company acquired woodlands from the Canarsee Indians and named the site Bedford. The area was officially recognized by English governor Edmund Andros in 1677. Bedford was used primarily for farming throughout the eighteenth century, although it was occupied by British troops after the Revolutionary War s Battle of Brooklyn. Innovations in transportation accelerated a growth in population. In 1836 the Brooklyn and Jamaica Railroad traversed Atlantic Street, which is now Atlantic Avenue. By 1873 the population had reached 14,000 and included Irish, German, Scottish, Dutch American, and African-American residents. Growth Years Bedford-Stuyvesant became more accessible from Manhattan upon completion of the Brooklyn Bridge (1883) and the elevated railroad (1885). The grandeur of the area around Bedford Corners and its thoroughfare, Stuyvesant Avenue, lured middle- and upper-class residents, notably F.W. Woolworth of the five-and-ten-cent stores and Abraham Abraham of Abraham & Straus. By 1920 the population had reached 45,000, and during the next decade the numbers of residents in the area rose dramatically, with an especially large increase after the subway reached the area in 1936. New immigrants poured into the neighborhood from Europe, the southern US, and the Caribbean. (Novelist and essayist Paule Marshall often includes descriptions of her family s Caribbean American lifestyle and the brownstones of Bed-Stuy in her writing.) Around this time many began referring to Bedford and Stuyvesant Heights by their current, combined name. In 1950 Bedford-Stuyvesant had a peak population of 250,00. The population declined progressively, by 46.7% overall, between 1950 and 1980 to reach a low of 133,377. Since then, it has steadily increased to its current level of about 144,000. Increases have been notable in the northeast quadrant, along Broadway, and along the southern side of Lafayette Ave. Bedford Stuyvesant Today Proximity to transportation, the neighborhoods character, and growth of new development coming to the market are just a few of the factors drawing investors and residents to Bedford Stuyvesant. Bedford Stuyvesant is known for its diverse culture, beautiful brownstone townhouses, historic buildings and tree-lined blocks. Among the historic areas you can also expect to find many new developments and conversion projects both completed and under construction in the neighborhood. 196 Macon Street, The Brownstone, is a 5-story, 28 unit rental building which began leasing apartments in September of 2014. Studios are priced at $2,200/month and range up to a 3BR/1BA for $3,300/month. 1192 Bedford Avenue, a boutique 6-unit condominium project developed by Brookland Capital has already placed all 6 units under contract. The Shelton, located at 775 Lafayette Avenue is a larger scale development completed in 2012. This 14 story building has 83 units 30% of which are dedicated to affordable housing. To accompany the thriving development market the neighborhood has responded with a surge of new restaurants and bars. Some notable establishments include the Michelin recommended Black Swan on Bedford Avenue, the Therapy Wine Bar and Peaches on Lewis Avenue, and the Vodou Bar and Saraghina on Halsey Street. The combination of exciting cultural elements coupled with new beautiful living spaces make Bedford Stuyvesant one of New York City s most unique & exciting neighborhoods.
