The Borough’s Best: 20 Brooklyn Neighborhood Superlatives
Williamsburg
We hate being the type of people to bemoan the demise of Williamsburg into Brooklyn’s very own version of Times Square, but, uh, Williamsburg on the weekend? Is Brooklyn’s very own version of Times Square. Well, in fairness, not all of Williamsburg is like that, but the northern part of the neighborhood certainly is, and should be avoided at all costs. Unless, of course, you are a Pat Kiernan mega-fan and want to catch him living his Bedford Avenue life, which, Kiernan has recently reported, includes frequent meals at the Meatball Shop. So, yeah. We think we can safely predict Williamsburg’s time of death as being circa now.
