Flex and creative space for lease in Flatlands
Flatlands' commercial stock is mostly industrial: warehouse, self storage and light manufacturing buildings on Glenwood Road, Foster Avenue and Utica Avenue, where Flatlands meets East Flatbush, inside the city's Flatlands/Fairfield Industrial Business Zone, which continues east into Canarsie. Kings Highway carries newer big-box retail. There is no subway stop in the district: the B46 runs up Utica Avenue, and the nearest train is the 2 and 5 at Flatbush Avenue-Brooklyn College, about a mile west.

Source: NYC Department of City Planning, PLUTO 26v2, pulled 2026-10-05. Counts cover tax lots with commercial floor area within about 0.5 mi of Flatlands' commercial core, and each lot counts toward one neighborhood only, so boundaries are approximate. Building figures are the city's floor-area estimates, not available space.
