Newer Communities with Modern Appeal
Many of the South Shore’s residential developments began to take shape following the construction of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in the 1960s. With improved access to and from Brooklyn and Manhattan, demand for housing surged, and new neighborhoods began to flourish. Today, the South Shore features spacious homes, wider streets, and a more contemporary layout compared to other parts of Staten Island.
