Carroll Gardens began to shape its distinctive and tranquil character during the 1960s, even though it was initially perceived as part of Red Hook. The formal demarcation began in the 1940s with the construction of the Brooklyn-Queens and Gowanus Expressways, solidifying the present-day boundaries between the two neighborhoods. However, as far back as the 1860s, Carroll Gardens had already established its unique residential charm. The brownstones in Carroll Gardens defied the typical trends of Brooklyn architecture at the time, featuring front gardens set further back from the street, creating a remarkable aesthetic. This architectural style is exemplified by the neo-Grec and late Italianate rowhouses that form the Carroll Gardens Historic District. Whether residing in a preserved landmark or above a cherished local establishment, people are drawn to Carroll Gardens for its unmistakable sense of vitality that adds a distinct flavor to Brooklyn..
