New York's 26th State Senate district is one of 63 districts in the New York State Senate. Based in western Brooklyn, neighborhoods located entirely or partially within the district's boundaries include Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, the Columbia Street Waterfront District, Dumbo, Dyker Heights, Fort Hamilton, Gowanus, Park Slope, Red Hook, South Slope, and Sunset Park. Also within its boundaries are the Brooklyn Bridge, the Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island.
It is currently represented by Democrat Andrew Gounardes. Prior to redistricting in 2022, much of the seat's territory fell within the 19th district.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt began his political career representing the 26th district from 1911 to 1913, albeit under entirely different lines. The district was previously based in upstate New York and contained portions of Columbia, Dutchess and Putnam counties.
