Senator Street Historic District is a national historic district in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, New York, New York. It consists of 40 contributing residential buildings (including two garages) built between 1906 and 1912. They are all three story brownstone rowhouses in the Neo-Renaissance style. The houses feature high stoops and full sized subterranean basements.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]

Uniqueness

The street, which replaces what would otherwise be 68th Street,[citation needed] is named for New York State Senator Henry Cruse Murphy,[3][4][5] who also held other elected positions.[6][7]

As with the name Brooklyn,[8][circular reference] this is not the only Senator Street in the United States.[9]
