# Why choose Dyker Heights over other South Brooklyn neighborhoods?

Dyker Heights offers something rare in modern NYC - protected old-fashioned character. The rezoning protection against high-rises and density means what you buy today will stay that way. The 1895 high-end speculative origins give it architectural character. The Dyker Beach Golf Course is a quality-of-life perk. The trade-off is the distance from subway stations - drivers love it, transit-dependent commuters less so. Call The Franzese Group at (718) 666-2696.
