Brooklyn Heights Townhouse Garden & Rear Terrace

(212) 653-0662

Brooklyn Heights' historic brownstone townhouses, converted carriage houses, and waterfront penthouse residences generate a strong demand for rear garden and terrace design. The neighborhood's Landmarks Preservation Commission designation means that exterior alterations require careful coordination, and clients expect planting and hardscape compositions that complement the historic character of their buildings while delivering a fully contemporary outdoor living experience.
