Williamsburg Walking Tour: History, Hipsters, Hasids & Hops
Overview
I call this a tour of history, hipsters, Hasids, high-rises, hops and more. Join a long-time Williamsburg resident for a walking tour of one of Brooklyn’s most well-known neighborhoods. Beyond the hipsters (are they still around!?) and new high-rises, Williamsburg is so much more. Learn about the early days before the area was part of NYC, who “William” was, and the many groups that have and still call Williamsburg home. We will visit new and old parks, see some of the coolest places to eat in New York, and perhaps have a beer (which has a long history in Williamsburg). There’s a reason this area is so well-known: it is fascinating!
