Street cleaning and no-parking rules for every block around the development, between Sutter Avenue and Dumont Avenue, from Rockaway Avenue to Mother Gaston Boulevard, so you know when to move your car.

 

Street Cleaning

Alternate side parking. No parking on that side during the posted time so the sweeper can pass.

There are no meters on the blocks right around Brownsville Houses. If you park on a metered street nearby, pay at the meter or with the ParkNYC app.

No Parking

Bus stops, hydrants and “No Standing Anytime” zones. You can be ticketed or towed any time.

Special Rules

NYCHA Parking
Always read the posted sign. Times on this page come from the NYC DOT parking sign database (October 2026). We found no parking meters on the blocks bordering the development. Signs can change, and temporary signs for construction, filming or events are not listed. Street cleaning is suspended on legal and religious holidays; check the ASP suspension calendar or 311. Never park at a hydrant, bus stop, crosswalk or driveway. See an error? Let us know.
