New York's new fashion neighborhood
The Greenpoint neighborhood has become fashionable in New York.Manhattan's noise and circulatory chaos drive New Yorks to look common people.
More information
Greenpoint is located north of Brooklyn, just a few streets from Williamsburg, one of the most hipstersde New York neighborhoods.It is known as the little Poland, since it hosts the second largest community of Poles in the United States, after Chicago.The area has acquired strength and are increasing.
Despite being poorly communicated by Metro with Manhattan - there is to do transford to arrive - and have a night atmosphere sometimes somewhat soulless, the truth is that this green point in New York has many attractions.In fact, it is the area in which one of the fashion series, Girls, of HBO develops.
We propose an essential guide to enjoy one of the neighborhoods of the moment.
Green walks
One of the reasons why Greenpoint is gaining followers is its large number of outdoor areas, among which are its main parks.
Transmitter Park (GreenPoint Ave and West St)
Lawn, East River and the incomparable Manhattan skyline in front of you.Can you ask for more?
Newtown Creek Nature Walk (Paidge Ave & Provost St)
If you feel like a walk through a quiet area, with views of the New York skyscrapers but without the tourist transfer of Transmitter or McCarren, you have to approach Newtown Creek.A lot.
For ‘brunch’
Allswell (124 Bedford Ave)
Near McCarren Park, one of Greenpoint's best known gardens, this American pub has become very popular for both Sunday breakfasts and for evening beers.
Five Leaves (18 Bedford Ave)

Not far from Allswell is one of the best known restaurants in the neighborhood.The atmosphere and food do not stand out too much among the dozen surrounding premises, with good decoration and tightened tables abroad as a terrace.But the story of Five Leaves has made it extremely popular among Greenpoint's visitors, as it was the restaurant project of the ill -fated Heath Ledger before they die.Although the Australian actor did not see him finished, his family was responsible for completing one of his great dreams: this restaurant.
For dinner
Ringolevio (490 Humboldt St)
If you run away from fast food and what you are looking for is a more intimate atmosphere in a pretty place, of these that fall in love Ringolevio could be your place.He has Mediterranean food with very good valuations among American restaurant guides.
Little Pole (200 2nd Ave)
