Boerum Hill’s brownstone-and-tree-lined streets are meant for strolling. In recent years dozens of adventurous restaurants, cozy cafés and charming boutiques have moved in along the main thoroughfares of Smith Street and Atlantic Avenue, and make for a leisurely afternoon of shopping and dining. Artsy types, families and longtime locals mingle in one of Brooklyn’s prettiest neighborhoods.
