Manhattan Beach, originally designed as a grand, oceanfront resort, has developed into an exclusive, comfortable neighborhood known for its proximity to Brooklyn's world famous beach. Along with the special charm of the boardwalk and beach, the neighborhood is home to Manhattan Beach Park, a haven for families who come from near and far to enjoy the sprawling landcape. From picnics to sports to playgrounds, all within blocks of the Atlantic ocean. Truly a seaside gem.

Few pleasures in life can thrill the senses like a seaside breeze and the soothing sound of the ocean. Imagine being able to stroll just a few blocks. any time of day, to enjoy boardwalk dining, sitting with your loved one watching the setting sun and listening to the waves lapping on the shore.

There is green space for everyone, young and old, in the sprawling Manhattan Beach Park. With tennis, basketball and handball courts, two baseball diamonds and two playgrounds, outdoor fun, fitness and relaxation is within arm's reach. Enjoy a picnic with your family, barbecue with friends, all just steps from the sand and shore.

Overlooking Sheepshead Bay, seagulls can be heard from the large school yard. The Manhattan Beach community is proud to be home to PS 195 which scores a 10 out of 10 on GreatSchools.org'. The school not only boasts test scores consistently among the highest in the city but the building itself-like much of the neighborhood is charming to behold. And the Kingsborough Community College campus, which is the part of the City University of New York, occupies the entire eastern tip of Manhattan Beach.
