* Situated thrillingly close to Manhattan (a block from four subway lines, all of them only 20 minutes from Manhattan)

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1995
A traveler myself, I am eager to share with guests my knowledge of the city. And as a Brooklyn resident for 28 years, a cab-driver for eight of those years, I know the city like a map. I have also taught public school, worked as a photo-retoucher (before Photoshop obliterated that career), and written for the Village Voice, the New York Times, New York Magazine, the Daily News, and other publications. In 1997, I began teaching English at Baruch College.
Throughout all these changes, it has been my good fortune to live in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn’s most beautiful, most exciting neighborhood (that’s not a contradiction). Once owned mainly by Jews and Italians (you can still find homemade wine presses in many basements), its brownstones are rapidly being renovated by upwardly-mobile whites, blacks, and Asians from all over the world. The Sofia Inn sits smack in the middle of this excitement; comfortable, yet close to the action.
The Unique Benefits of this Suite
I enjoy the beauty of brownstone Brooklyn, the cultural and culinary advantages of a rapidly changing, always exciting neighborhood, and I am only 20 minutes from Midtown Manhattan. You cannot beat the location.
