Greenpoint Neighborhood Guide
The cozy neighborhood of Greenpoint is Brooklyn's northernmost neighborhood and is nestled with charming homes, cramped shops, and stellar views of the Manhattan skyline. Its relative remoteness (it's only accessible via ferry or the one subway line that takes you there) has prevented an influx of new residents as you'll see elsewhere in Brooklyn, which has allowed it to maintain its classic NYC vibe. The traditional charm is balanced by newly developed waterfront parks and a world-famous flea market. It's a top choice for New Yorkers who want a more laidback experience than they'd find elsewhere in Brooklyn.
Architecture and landmarks
Once an industrial and manufacturing center, Greenpoint is chock full of converted warehouses and factories and has a high percentage of traditional brownstones and three-story walkups. New construction has been increasing in the last decade but the neighborhood holds much of its traditional architectural standards. The Greenpoint Historic District includes many landmarks in the area, including the Episcopal Church of the Ascension, the Astral Apartments built in 1885, the Eberhard-Faber Pencil Factory, and the Oliver Hazard Perry School, which was built in 1867 and is the oldest continuously operating school in all of New York City. There have also been strides taken to restore some of the older buildings, including Keramos Hall, which won a Lucy G. Moses Preservation Award in 2013.
Transport
Public transport to and from Greenpoint is available via the G train at the Nassau Avenue and Greenpoint Avenue stops. A ferry is the only other way to get to the neighborhood without a car, but residents believe that the lack of options in transit are made up for by the more laidback vibe.
Schools
One of the biggest advantages to families in the Greenpoint area is that the public schools are some of the only options in the city of New York that don't have waitlists. There are three zoned elementary schools, one public middle school and two public high schools in Greenpoint.
Health
The Brooklyn Hospital Center's Manhattan Avenue Family Health Center is located directly in the middle of Greenpoint and offers everything from family medical to dental care to midwife assistance. There are numerous private practices and alternative medicine options in the area as well.
Safety
Greenpoint is located in the New York Police Department's 94th precinct, where 18 crimes per 1,000 residents were reported in 2015. This means it is less safe than most of Brooklyn, but relatively safer than other areas in the northern part of the borough.
Things to do
Greenpoint has a strong immigrant heritage, which transfers well to the food scene. You'll find hardy traditional Polish dishes at Karczma, Lomzynianka, and Krolewskie, each with unique decor and authentic food, but there's plenty of non-Polish eats in the area too, including some of the most popular pizza in the city at Paulie Gee's. Park Luncheonette has been a busy eatery since the 1930s and there are numerous Asian restaurants in the neighborhood too, including Little Dokebi.
Savvy shoppers consider it one of the best areas to find quirky, independent shops. Beacon's Closet, which moved from Williamsburg to great fanfare, is a top choice, as is Fox & Fawn, an affordable consignment store, and MAHPS, which concentrates on looks from the `50s - `90s . Of course, there are modern stores too, like Line & Label with their handcrafted jewelry; Loren with a Brooklyn-manufactured line of denim; and Wolves Within, which specialists in streetwear for both men and women.
The nightlife in Greenpoint is still mostly in tune with the neighborhood's working class past, so you'll find plenty of homey, neighborhood bars where you can have a few drinks for less than $20. No Name Bar and Manhattan Inn are two popular spots on the weekends, where you'll find music, drinks, and food in locations that stay open almost all night long. Those looking for the craft beers and cocktails that Brooklyn's becoming known for can satisfy their thirst at Spritzenhaus33 and Greenpoint Beer & Ale Co. Much of the riverfront property in Greenpoint was rezoned in 2012 to make it possible for more green spaces to be added. Current parks include McCarren Park, the largest green space in the area; McGolrick Park, with a sheltered pavilion; and WNYC Transmitter Park, opened in 2012.
