About Williamsburg, Brooklyn Real Estate

 
Williamsburg is time and again a pop culture trendsetter. Located on the northern end of Brooklyn, just south of Greenpoint, the collective feeling towards this oft-debated title is a casual group shrug. Nothing seems to be taken too seriously in this posh neighborhood, and that is how the residents like it. It is not uncommon to have day parties just because residents here celebrate life whenever the mood strikes. Creative and fun are the name of the game.
 
This is not the quiet meditation-level community of some surrounding areas. There is some hustle and bustle here, along with good time-loving neighbors. This area has a thriving and rich music scene to compliment the good vibes. Luxury high rises and condominiums have beautiful waterfront views.

Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Peter Luger Steakhouse is an old-school steakhouse that serves aged beef with top-notch service to match. The setting for this fantastic venue is made to look like a traditional German beer hall. Until the last few years, this establishment was cash only but has moved to cash and debit. The Meatball Shop is exactly what it sounds like; it's a place where meatballs and traditional Italian food are what’s for dinner. This is also an amazing stop for a top-notch brunch that fills and delights. Cafe Mogador was started in 1983 and quickly established itself as a cultural hub. Serving up Moroccan-inspired fare with a decidedly Bohemian vibe. D.O.C. Wine Bar is next-level Italian cuisine that is authentic and inspired. As a welcome addition to their quality food offerings, a robust list of fine wine selections are a great way to enhance your experience.

This festival has deep roots in the community while welcoming newcomers at any opportunity with a more the merrier attitude.
