Where home appliances sit in Brooklyn: older housing stock, mixed housing, apartments and small homes. [All of New York Metro](https://appliancemaintenance.center/locations/new-york/) ### Older housing stock Older houses were not built around modern appliances, and a dryer or a hood there may exhaust through an opening cut decades ago in a thick wall, so upkeep traces that path to the outside and cleans it from end to end. ### Mixed housing In an older house with a new kitchen the appliances may be modern while the hoses, drains and exhaust runs behind them are old, so upkeep checks what connects to them as carefully as the appliances themselves. ### Apartments and small homes Small homes tend to lean on a single appliance of each kind for everything, one oven, one dishwasher, one washer, and with no spare to fall back on, cleaning filters and checking seals on a schedule matters more than in a bigger house. ## Where we go in Brooklyn. 9 cities and neighborhoods across Brooklyn, part of New York Metro, 3 of them with a page on what that place does to a home appliance. The same visit in each. **9** places covered **8** counties in New York Metro **10** services [All of New York Metro](https://appliancemaintenance.center/locations/new-york/) ### Brooklyn Heights Brooklyn Heights row houses keep kitchens and laundries on garden levels a few steps below the sidewalk, where damp and old floor drains make washer hoses and drain filters worth checking, and the dryer often exhausts beneath the stoop through a small outlet that lint and leaves block. ### DUMBO DUMBO's residential buildings are almost entirely converted 19th- and early-20th-century industrial and warehouse structures, including some of the earliest large-scale reinforced-concrete factory buildings built in America. ### Park Slope Park Slope brownstones often have kitchens renovated one floor at a time, with appliances of different ages stacked through the house, so maintenance there keeps a floor-by-floor log and checks each unit's hoses and ducts where they pass through old walls. ### Bay Ridge Bay Ridge sits at the base of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, and its housing runs from early-20th-century rowhouses near the shore to postwar apartment buildings further inland. ### Carroll Gardens Carroll Gardens is known for the unusually deep front gardens on its 1860s rowhouses, a layout the neighborhood's Italian-American builders set unusually far back from the street. ### Cobble Hill The Cobble Hill Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1969, protects blocks of 19th-century Brooklyn rowhouses that predate most of the borough's later apartment construction. ### Ditmas Park Ditmas Park's Victorian Flatbush section holds one of the largest concentrations of free-standing Victorian houses left in New York City, most built between 1900 and 1930 on wide, tree-lined lots. ### Greenpoint Greenpoint's 19th-century shipyards, including the one that built the ironclad USS Monitor, left behind an industrial waterfront now bordered by rowhouses in the Greenpoint Historic District. ### Williamsburg Williamsburg's waterfront once held breweries, refineries and factories, and many of the neighborhood's newer residential buildings are conversions of that 19th- and early-20th-century industrial stock. ## A visit in Brooklyn.
