A short walk away, Fort Greene Park is Brooklyn’s oldest park dating back to the Revolutionary War. Visit the Prison Ship Martyrs’ Monument at the center for a bit of local history, or visit the Greenmarket (every Saturday) to listen to music by local artists, learn facts about featured market produce, take home market recipes, watch cooking demonstrations by local chefs. The Stairs make for a great exercise spot too.
