What Brooklyn does
to a stove.

Where stoves sit in Brooklyn: older housing stock, mixed housing, small kitchens.

All of New York Metro

Older housing stock

Buyers of an older house often inherit the stove that came with it and ask one thing first: is it worth keeping? A visit answers by lighting every burner, heating the oven and looking at the gas connector before any money goes to a new stove.

Mixed housing

Older houses on these streets may still feed a gas stove through rigid pipe rather than a flexible connector, which makes pulling it out harder, so the move is planned with the gas off and the connection brought up to current practice.

Small kitchens

A small kitchen leaves little room to swing the oven door, so the oven door gets bumped by hips and chairs every day, and its hinges tend to wear out sooner than in a roomy kitchen.

Brooklyn Heights

Row houses where an older gas stove often came with the house, and anything bigger than a part has to climb narrow stairs, so repair tends to win over replacement.

DUMBO

The DUMBO Historic District includes the earliest large-scale reinforced concrete factory buildings in America.

Park Slope

Family brownstones and flats where children learn to cook beside their parents at an older gas stove, so knob covers and an oven door that closes firmly matter as much as the burners.

Bay Ridge

Bay Ridge was called Yellow Hook, after the color of its soil, until December 1853, when it was renamed to shed any association with yellow fever.

Carroll Gardens

The Carroll Gardens Historic District takes in a rough rectangle of houses bounded by Carroll, President, Smith and Hoyt Streets, plus the western ends of two blocks between President and First Streets.

Cobble Hill

Cobble Hill grew out of Brooklyn Heights after the new city of Brooklyn spread south past Atlantic Avenue in the 1830s, and by 1880 its houses cost almost as much as those of its older neighbor.

Ditmas Park

Besides its houses, the Ditmas Park Historic District holds apartment buildings, a shopping strip on Cortelyou Road and the brick Neo-Georgian Flatbush-Tompkins Congregational Church of 1910.

Greenpoint

Greenpoint's first recorded European settler, Dirck Volckertsen, built a one-and-a-half-story Dutch-style farmhouse there in 1645 with the help of two Dutch carpenters.

Williamsburg

On April 18, 1835, the Village of Williamsburg annexed part of the Town of Bushwick, and its German-settled New Village district was for a time nicknamed Dutchtown.
