Where should cameras go on a Boerum Hill brownstone?

The critical camera positions for a Boerum Hill brownstone: (1) stoop/front entrance facing the sidewalk, (2) rear garden or yard, (3) parlor floor hallway if multi-unit, (4) any side alley or passageway. For Boerum Hill brownstones with basement apartments, add a camera covering the below-grade entrance. We use discreet dome cameras that don’t clash with historic architecture.

Wired or wireless cameras for Boerum Hill buildings?

For Boerum Hill’s brownstones and luxury condos along Smith Street, wired PoE cameras are the only professional option. WiFi cameras can’t reliably penetrate the thick walls and floors of Boerum Hill buildings. PoE (Power over Ethernet) delivers both power and data through a single Cat6 cable — stable 4K video with zero WiFi interference. Every Boerum Hill installation uses wired systems.
