New York Rentals – Williamsburg

Williamsburg is one of New York City’s hottest neighborhoods and has long been considered the trendiest area of Brooklyn. Williamsburg borders Greenpoint, Bushwick, Bedford-Stuyvesant, and Ridgewood. Over that past few years, it has become known for its concentration of performing arts venues, galleries, boutiques, and fine dining. Like many Brooklyn neighborhoods, Williamsburg manages to synthesize history with a booming youth culture.

Williamsburg is a neighborhood that never stops. By day, bike across the historic Williamsburg Bridge, shop at the Brooklyn Flea Market or stop by Beacon’s Closet for vintage thrills. By night, see a live performance at the Music Hall of Williamsburg, take in the night-life at one of the many lounges and bars, or even take a tour of the iconic Brooklyn Brewery. Originally a hub for industry, today Williamsburg is a mix of multi-family homes, historic industrial buildings like the Domino Sugar Factory, and a rapidly increasing amount of luxury waterfront properties.

Thanks to the 2005 rezoning of the North Side and Greenpoint’s waterfront, the district is zoned to accommodate waterfront park space, esplanades, and even residential construction. The Williamsburg Bridge connects Manhattan’s Lower East Side to Northern Brooklyn at its entry in Williamsburg and with the L, J, M, Z, and G trains, commuting into the city is a breeze.
