The experience
Named in 1878 after the English seaside resort, this corner of southern Brooklyn became Little Odessa after Soviet Jewish families from Russia and Ukraine settled here from the mid-1970s, with far larger numbers arriving once the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991 and Central Asian immigrants since. Russian-language food shops, cafes, the Master Theater and the Brighton Ballet Theater line the streets. The elevated BMT Brighton Line has run above Brighton Beach Avenue since August 1920. The Riegelmann Boardwalk and the Atlantic are two blocks south.
A whole working post-Soviet neighbourhood that happens to end at the Atlantic Ocean.
