# Is Fort Greene part of Bed-Stuy?

No, Fort Greene is its own distinct neighborhood, though it lies west of Bedford-Stuyvesant and the two are sometimes confused. Fort Greene is generally bounded by Flushing Avenue to the north, the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway to the west, Atlantic Avenue to the south, and Clinton Hill to the east. It has its own historic district, its own identity centered on Fort Greene Park and the BAM cultural district, and its own market. While neighboring areas share a brownstone character, Fort Greene is a separate neighborhood.
