Gowanus
Gowanus flanks its canal between Carroll Gardens and Park Slope, and the 2021 rezoning turned the former industrial corridor into brownstone Brooklyn's largest new-development pipeline — the first wave of towers is delivering now along Fourth Avenue and the canal. The for-sale stock is therefore the newest in the area, with short sale histories dominated by sponsor closings. The canal itself remains under an active federal cleanup, and canal-adjacent blocks sit in mapped flood zones — check the flood designation and the tax-abatement terms on any new building before modeling the carry.
