Top 10 Gift & Specialty Shops in Williamsburg, New York (NY)

May 30, 2021 Harland Bartelt

It seems like most folks have a grandmother, great-uncle or some other distant relative that used to live in Brooklyn, or perhaps a friend that lives there now. In the early 1900s, it was a mecca for immigrants arriving via Ellis Island. A hundred years later, young professionals and artists left pricey Manhattan digs for Brooklyn's cheaper and more expansive space. Neighborhoods like Brooklyn Heights and Park Slope, which had fallen into disrepair over the years, were restored and reborn as funky enclaves. Walk or bike over the historic Brooklyn Bridge (or ride the subway) to Brooklyn Heights for a stroll along the Promenade and breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline. Meander through Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens for a taste of nature in the urban wilds. Catch a performance at the world-famous Brooklyn Academy of Music. From the delicious Italian restaurants of Bensonhurst to the Irish bars that line the avenues of Bay Ridge, from the hotdogs and rollercoasters of Coney Island to the bagels and handball courts of Greenpoint, Brooklyn is a state of mind as well as a dynamic community. Discover why, no matter where people move on to, they remain Brooklynites at heart.

Rough Trade

Reviewed By RealDS - London, United Kingdom

This is my second time here in 5 years. This place is one of the most unique and wonderful places. We have a few Rough Trades in London but they don’t compare to the Brooklyn one. They don’t even come close. It is huge. It doubles up as a record store and a live music venue. The sound is phenomenal for such a small venue. If you’re in Brooklyn, it’s definitely a place to visit!!
