  • WELCOME: Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn

Manhattan Beach, a residential neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York City, is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the south and east, Sheepshead Bay to the north, and Brighton Beach to the west. Traditionally, it has been known as an Italian and Ashkenazi Jewish neighborhood, but it also has a significant community of Sephardi Jews and Russian Jewish immigrants.

Part of Brooklyn Community District 15, Manhattan Beach primarily uses ZIP Code 11235. It is patrolled by the NYPD’s 61st Precinct and is politically represented by the New York City Council’s 48th District. The area is served by the Manhattan Beach Community Group, founded in 1941, and the Manhattan Beach Neighborhood Association, established in 2008.

  • History

Manhattan Beach was the most upscale of the three major resort areas developed at Coney Island shortly after the American Civil War, alongside Brighton Beach and West Brighton.

Developed in the late 19th century by Austin Corbin, who later became president of the Long Island Rail Road, Manhattan Beach was marked by the establishment of Corbin Place, the boundary between Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach. In 1877, Corbin built the famous Manhattan Beach Hotel, followed by the grander Oriental Hotel in 1880. The nearby Coney Island Jockey Club horse racing track opened around the same time as the Oriental Hotel, and together, these establishments drew thousands of visitors to Manhattan Beach. The hotels hosted daily concerts by famous conductors such as Conterno, Gilmore, and John Philip Sousa, and elaborate nightly fireworks displays attracted tens of thousands of visitors on summer nights, making Manhattan Beach a renowned summer seaside resort. Sousa even composed the “Manhattan Beach” march in 1893 to commemorate the resort. Corbin, an anti-Semite who served as the secretary of the American Society for the Suppression of Jews, barred Jews from the resort. In 1895, Corbin built a 12,000-capacity third-mile concrete cycling track behind the hotel at a cost of $30,000.

During World War II, the U.S. Coast Guard operated a training station at Manhattan Beach. After the hotel industry deteriorated, the site of the former Manhattan Beach Hotel was developed into a residential area and Manhattan Beach Park by the New York City Parks Department. Manhattan Beach Park opened to the public in 1955 to alleviate crowding at neighboring Coney Island and Brighton Beach and continues to serve the public today. From 1954 to 1959, the neighborhood was home to Manhattan Beach Air Force Station. Since the 1980s, Manhattan Beach has become an enclave for higher-end middle-class Russian Jews. The Manhattan Beach Jewish Center was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.

  • Police and crime

Manhattan Beach is patrolled by the NYPD’s 61st Precinct, located at 2575 Coney Island Avenue. In 2010, the 61st Precinct ranked as the 5th safest out of 69 patrol areas for per-capita crime.

The 61st Precinct has seen a significant reduction in crime rates compared to the 1990s, with an 88.2% decrease in crimes across all categories between 1990 and 2018. In 2018, the precinct reported 1 murder, 17 rapes, 150 robberies, 170 felony assaults, 169 burglaries, 584 grand larcenies, and 72 grand larcenies auto.

After his death, the policy was canceled, and the neighborhood subsequently attracted many Jewish residents.
