I know that Sunset Park North has had gentrification for a while, but does anyone think it has reached into the southern part of Sunset Park where the Brooklyn Chinatown is?
I have strolled down 6th Avenue in the 50s and 60s Streets and although it is not a significant number, it seems like there are a few hipsters already.
Has anyone noticed this? Is gentrification now finally reaching further into Bay Ridge and maybe now Borough Park/Bensonhurst will be next?
AECOM is proposal fully gentrified Brooklyn (including skyscrapers in Red Hook asking the city by closing Red Hook container terminal not yet approve by the city.

I don't think it's as significant in the 50s and 60s - Chinese are buying up most of the real estate (at least that was the case when I was there) and when they do, it's their family or other Chinese they rent to that are moving in.
I lived on 61st, my landlord owned two houses next to each other - he sold both to one Chinese family. Each house was 1.5 million (full ask). That was over a year ago.
