DeKalb Avenue

It runs from Woodward Avenue (Linden Hill Cemetery) in Ridgewood, Queens to Downtown Brooklyn, terminating at the Fulton Mall where the Brooklyn Tower and City Point cross.

DeKalb Avenue is named after Baron Johann de Kalb, who served in the American Revolutionary War.

Lafayette Avenue is the corresponding parallel one-way street eastbound.

A bike lane, installed in 2004 and extended in 2008, exists between Malcolm X Boulevard and Flatbush Avenue.

The NYCDOT proposed in 2008 to introduce traffic calming and other improvements to DeKalb Avenue.
