Is Park Slope is the most livable neighborhood in NYC. It’s in the running for that title in Curbed’s Neighborhood of the Year.
After slipping by underdog Roosevelt Island in a controversial vote, Park Slope‘s march to Curbed Cup glory continues. The Slope is the people’s choice (it received double the reader nods of the next most popular Curbed Cup nominee), and this year it was scientifically proven to be NYC’s most “livable” neighborhood. It also sported the city’s most controversial new bike lane. Quite the achievements! The retail and restaurant scenes continue to expand,starchitects are showing up and wealthy Googlers arerenovating $8.5 million mansions. But every giant has weaknesses. The neighborhood’s outskirts still leave something to be desired, and even some Slopers loathe the place. But as one reader put it, “If it’s good enough forNew York magazine and the American Planning Association, it should be good enough for Curbed.”
Uhm, do you know how to read? Park Slope has not been named neighborhood of the year yet. Curbed is doing a poll…Park Slope advanced to the next round. That’s it.
