Williamsburg

Thanks to the rise of nightlife in areas such as Williamsburg, gone are the days when Brooklyn’s party scene felt like a second class citizen to Manhattan’s.

A string of after dark hangouts, from bowling-alley-come-music-venues to warehouse inspired dance clubs, have transformed Williamsburg into one the most fashionable neighbourhoods in New York.

With a distinct lack of bottle service, the crowds are carefree and musically astute, so be prepared to get a little sweaty.
