If you are reading this, likely you are considering Bedford-Stuyvesant as a place to either purchase your next home or purchase investment property.
Well, this week BSP is doing something a little different for our House Hunt column: As a part of the Bed-Stuy Alive! celebration, we are featuring the 33rd Annual House Tour of Bedford Stuyvesant, sponsored by Brownstoners of Bedford-Stuyvesant, taking place this Saturday, October 15, from 11:00am – 4:00pm (rain or shine).
What better way to get a feel of the neighborhood and learn the architectural history of the properties you are considering purchasing than through a guided tour? The tour will be an interactive and fun way to get a quick history lesson on Bedford-Stuyvesant -- one of the oldest settlement communities in Brooklyn.
