Kensington
If you’re looking for hardwood flooring Gemini Floor Services is centrally located in Brooklyn and serves the 11218 & 11229 Brooklyn neighborhood of Kensington. Gemini Floor Services is a family owned local flooring contractor in the flooring industry over 30 years serving Brooklyn and NYC metro area since 2005.
Kensington is becoming quite popular. The area is still a little more affordable than other choice Brooklyn neighborhoods, at least as of 2018. The neighborhood is family friendly and has alot going for it with good public schools, low crime, abundant public transportation & shopping next to quiet tree lined streets.
It’s often described as having an unpretentious, laid back, live & let live vibe. This is due to its very diverse ethnic population. While old school Kensington was originally all Irish & Italian, today the residents are people from practically everywhere. Many young folks in their 20’s & 30’s are currently moving in.
Recreation is also abundant with close proximity to Prospect Park & Park Slope; and the neighborhood has riding horse stables, soccer, baseball & tennis facilities.
Kensington also has pretty diverse housing options. There’s brick townhomes, single family detached Victorian homes, multi family homes, apartments & coops. The main throughways Ocean Parkway & Coney Island Ave are lined with many brick apartment buildings built before World War II. It’s always interesting for us to see so much cultural & architectural diversity in Brooklyn as we install flooring throughout the borough.
There’s plenty of shopping in the neighborhood with groceries, dollar stores, bars & eateries. And we’ve been seeing alot of new restaurants & lounges popping up. The main shopping Aves are Coney Island Ave, Ditmas, McDonald & Church Ave.
Another wonderful feature of Kensington is the Ocean Parkway. It was completed in 1880 and connects Prospect Park with Coney Island 5 miles away. Similar to the Eastern Parkway but longer, it is also tree lined & has 8 lanes, 2 of which are pedestrian lanes lined with benches. Ocean Parkway pedestrian path is part of the Brooklyn Queens Greenway spanning 33 miles of continuous pedestrian pathway from Coney Island to Fort Totten Park, Queens. The bicyle path passes through the major parks & parkways including Prospect Park, Eastern Parkway, Highland Park, Forest Park, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Kissena Park & Alley Pond Park.
