A suburban backyard? Try a private garden in Brooklyn. (206 Montrose Street via Elliman)
The outdoors is not off-limits during the coronavirus pandemic, but many New Yorkers may be wary of taking the subway or the bus to public parks where people may not be practicing social distancing as they should. Fortunately for the owners of these listings, a private outdoor oasis can be found right outside the door. It's true that these garden apartments don't feature the skyline views expected from a "typical" New York City apartment, but they do offer the best of all worlds both during this trying time and after it's over.
