Welcome to Windsor Terrace

Once a farm belonging to John Vanderbilt, the village of Windsor Terrace was incorporated in 1851. 8th Avenue is shared with Park Slope as far north as 15th Street, while Green-Wood Cemetery forms the southern border with Caton Avenue. Prospect Park lies to the north, where local softball and soccer teams of all ages can be found throughout the summer, and early morning dog walkers anytime of the year. Windsor Terrace is the home of Prospect Park's riding stables as well.

Here the F Train is rarely more than four blocks away and while Prospect Park West is convenient for shopping, be prepared to add extra time for the inevitable exchange of gossip with your neighbors - as Irish as they come! The old trolley barns have long been replaced by Bishop Ford High School and the vacant Saunder's Movie Palace was recently renovated into the Pavilion Theater. Whether they be Italian or Mexican, Windsor Terrace restaurants won't disappoint: and who would have ever dreamed that a sushi restaurant would open on Prospect Park West? Drop by for a visit! If you come from a small town, you'll feel especially at home in Windsor Terrace.

About Our Maps & Streets
Our maps and scrollable streets are not drawn to scale. Our maps are meant to convey a sense of what you'll find when you walk the neighborhoods. Since our web space is limited, we have adopted the following conventions.

"Apartments" indicates a multifamily building or buildings, generally without a stoop. "Residences" are buildings with stoops and may be multifamily. "Residence" (singular) is a single building. "Residences" (plural) may indicate two our three attached buildings.

Storefront note:

Wherever storefronts (yellow) are indicated, they are most likely to be three or four story brick buildings with apartments above. A vacant storefront in no way indicates that the entire building is vacant.

About Our Updates...
We walk our commercial streets every three or four months in order update our shop information. While the date reflects our last official update, we make a point to include new information as we hear of it. Feel free to let us know of any changes in your neighborhood.
