I <3 MY NEIGHBORHOOD


Gotham City, The Big Apple, The Concrete Jungle or perhaps The City that never sleeps. Whatever you may call this majestic and busy city, New York is home to the Escalate Agency and most of its staff. For many of us, we choose to live in neighborhoods that are not only affordable but those that possess a feel that is closest to our personalities. If they happen to be in walkable distance from our favorite bar or gym, then that’s a PLUS.

Check out some of reasons why we at Escalate <3 our neighborhoods…

“I live in the far west village. I appreciate and love my area because there are a lot of families and it is a little more quiet and quaint.”

“I live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. In my humble opinion, this neighborhood has the best bars, cafes and restaurants. I like the relaxed atmosphere where drinking a latte alone in a café is considered normal and no one looks at you strangely (“Table for one?”). Williamsburg even has a movie theater, Nitehawk Cinema, where you can order food from your seat. 

“Park Slope is where I reside and it has some of the friendliest and welcoming people you will ever meet. Not to mention, this area has a great food scene as well.”

“I live in Prospect Heights Brooklyn! I love it because it’s close to Prospect Park, the Brooklyn Museum, and Habana Outpost. Summers in Brooklyn are amazing… and I have an awesome deck for people watching and lemonade sipping!”

“I live in Astoria, Queens and I love it because it’s a safe neighborhood, it’s close to the city, and the amount of space you get is amazing. I even have my own little garden in my backyard.”

“As a religious Jew, I love Brooklyn because there are so many options for Synagogues, kosher restaurants and kosher food, not to mention my family and friends that live there too! My one stop shop!”

” I live in the area of BedStuy which is located in the most populous of new York City’s boroughs, Brooklyn. I love my neighborhood because the people are great and they treat each other with respect and courtesy. This little area has so much to offer with trendy restaurants, art galleries, boutiques and distinguished architecture. BedStuy is perfect for those who appreciate culture and fashion.”

“I live on the Upper East Side and love the access to the park. In the summer you can find me there reading and enjoying the scenery and the great weather!”
