Ditmas Park is a historic district in the neighborhood of Flatbush in Brooklyn, New York City.

[2] The name Ditmas Park is often used as a shorthand for the several neighborhoods that comprise the larger area of Victorian Flatbush.

[3] Ditmas Park is patrolled by the New York City Police Department's 70th Precinct,[4] and is within Brooklyn Community District 14.

Lewis H. Pounds was one of the early developers of the area now known as Ditmas Park Historic District.

This eight-block national historic district consists of 2,000 to 2,500 largely residential buildings built between 1902 and 1914.

[12][13][14] The area is also frequently used for movie and TV filming due to its Victorian houses, which project a suburban feel.

The Ditmas Park Association, founded in 1908, hosts social events, publishes a newsletter and a home improvement directory, and works on numerous civic issues, often jointly with its sister neighborhoods and the Flatbush Development Corporation.
