Fort Greene Brooklyn is in zip code 11205
The neighborhood is named after an American Revolutionary War era fort that was built in 1776 under the supervision of General Nathanael Greene of Rhode Island (McCullough 2005). General Greene aided General George Washington during the Battle of Long Island in 1776. Fort Greene Park, originally called Washington Park
and Brooklyn's first, is also derived from General Greene's name and
the neighborhood. In 1864, Fort Greene Park was redesigned by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux. The park notably includes the Prison Ship Martyrs' Monument and crypt, which honors some 11,500 patriots who died aboard British prison ships during the American Revolution.
Fort Greene contains many superb examples of mid-19th century Italianate and Eastlake
architecture, most of which is well preserved. It is known for its many
graceful, tree-lined streets and elegant low-rise housing. Fort Greene
is also home to the Williamsburgh Savings Bank Tower, which for over 80 years was the tallest building in Brooklyn.
