Brighton Beach
Coney Island's neighbor
Brighton Beach is a neighborhood in southern Brooklyn, New York, known for its large Russian-speaking immigrant community—sometimes called "Little Odessa" after the Ukrainian port city.
The area features Russian restaurants, shops with Cyrillic signage, and a boardwalk along the Atlantic Ocean: We went to Brighton Beach for borscht and blintzes.
