The neighborhood was historically heavily industrial, with the canal serving as a major transportation route for goods. The Gowanus Canal is a federal Superfund site, with ongoing remediation work. In recent years, the area has been the focus of major rezoning and substantial new residential development.
Gowanus is served by the F, G, and R subway lines at the 4th Avenue–9th Street and Smith–9th Street stations. The neighborhood is anchored by Whole Foods, Lowe's, the Gowanus Whole Foods Plaza, and Powerhouse Arena. The 2021 rezoning has triggered substantial new mid-rise residential development, transforming what was historically a low-rise industrial area into one of Brooklyn's most actively developing neighborhoods.
