Kensington is a neighborhood in the central portion of the New York City borough of Brooklyn, located south of Prospect Park and the Green-Wood Cemetery. It is a predominantly residential area, and the land where Kensington now sits was first colonized by Dutch farmers during the seventeenth century within the Town of Flatbush. It was re-settled by British colonists in 1737. Developed in 1885 after the completion of Ocean Parkway, the neighborhood was named after the place and borough in West London, at the turn of the century.
A diverse and slightly upscale neighborhood, Borough Park is a residential area in Brooklyn that hosts many events. Directly under the Green-Wood cemetery, this diverse neighborhood is popular yet peaceful.
Borough Park had a later history than most of Brooklyn. Originally developed in 1887, the neighborhood was used for cottages and summer homes for the people of Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Starting in the early 1900's, the Jewish population of Borough Park exploded. Many of the religious institutions and cultural centers they built back then still stand today. During and after WWII, Jewish refugees came to the neighborhood with the promise of community and safety.
By the early 2000's, Borough Park was christened the "baby boom capital" of New York due to the high birth rates here. Since then, business in the area exploded, making Borough Park a highly sought after neighborhood for lavish celebrations.
