About Williamsburg

In recent years, Williamsburg has emerged as one of New York’s hottest and most up-and-coming neighborhoods. Located on the western side of Brooklyn, Williamsburg boasts riverside views of Manhattan, trendy shops and restaurants, and refreshingly unique energy you can’t find anywhere else. Williamsburg was originally developed as a manufacturing neighborhood and as a result attracted many hardworking, middle-class families in the 20th century. However, decades later, the neighborhood is celebrated for its large population of artists and is seen as a symbol of creativity in the borough. The area is complete with a varying set of available apartments, from high rise condos to row houses, each with their own unique character.

With all the entertainment and nightlife options that fill the Williamsburg neighborhood, it is difficult to get bored living here. The Williamsburg party scene is one-of-a-kind with rooftop bars, daytime pop up parties, chic lounges, and even music venues like The Knitting Factory and The Music Hall of Williamsburg. For a more relaxed day in Williamsburg, visit one of the area’s trendy boutiques, local farmers’ markets, or ride your bike down the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway.

In addition to Williamsburg’s countless wine and cocktail bars, there are also tons of restaurants that offer an unparalleled culinary experience. Here are a few:

• Kings County Imperial for upscale Chinese bites.
• La Superior for an authentic Mexican taco experience.
• Sunday in Brooklyn for brunch any day of the week.
• The Blue Stove for a coffee and slice of pie.
• Lillia for Italian food to die forTrad Room for a Japanese spin on tapas.
