Of all the neighborhoods I’ve visited in Brooklyn (not all of them, not by a long shot, but a great many), Bushwick stands out as being the least like the others. Rather than brownstones or high-rises, this is an industrial-looking neighborhood of warehouses, many of them covered with bright paint. Everything is spread out. Bushwick is one of the l...
Bushwick is the only place in New York that I recommend visiting with a guide or someone who knows the neighborhood well.Not because it’s dangerous — far from it — but because so much of it is hidden in plain sight. Take this, for example: That’s my favorite coffeeshop in the neighborhood, Little Skips. Aside from a few bright bursts of paint, you’...
Our first stop was at a cafe called Italo, where we had a cappuccino- and mocha-making demonstration. It’s a warm and homey cafe and I recommend stopping in! (2018 update: sadly, Italo has closed. I hope you enjoy the photos anyway.) (I love these pictures so much! Thank you, Brooklyn hipsters, for dressing vintage-y and making it look like these a...
The street art is everywhere in Bushwick. Here are some of my favorite pieces: This is just the briefest of tastes. There is SO MUCH.
One of the highlights was stopping at Hops and Hocks, an adorable specialty store featuring food products from all over Brooklyn and the region. Yes, they have artisanal mayonnaise. Here Jessie arranged for us to have a beer and meat tasting. And it was out of this world! They actually had a beer flavored like Samoa (Caramel DeLite) Girl Scout Cook...
Here are some of my other favorite photos from the day: This is one of the creepier courtyards I’ve ever seen. Creepiest of all — that skeleton! Pure Bushwick: sitting in a bicycle chair next to a thrown-out Christmas tree. In February. Welcome home! This is an artists’ enclave, unsurprisingly. All this van needs is a FREE CANDY sign… Cool water on...
This was one of the best days that I’ve had in New York City so far!I’m totally serious. I loved this tour, I loved the neighborhood, and I loved the camaraderie. Bushwick is such a cool and different place, and spending time there makes me feel like I know New York on a more intimate level. If you’re visiting New York, I recommend getting beyond t...
If you do this tour, extend your time in Bushwick long enough to have a meal! These are all places that I discovered when spending a week here last fall. If you’re up for coffee and a sandwich, the aforementioned Little Skips is my favorite coffeeshop in Bushwick and one of my favorites in New York. Another great option is Dillinger’s, where they d...
Many thanks to Jessie and NYC Tours & Photo Safarisfor hosting me on a complimentary tour. All opinions, as always, are my own.
While it’s a little more spread out than anywhere in Manhattan or even nearby Williamsburg, Bushwick is still relatively walkable (the best way to enjoy the neighborhood’s iconic street art) and much more affordable, especially in terms of nightlife (which in this city, is saying a lot!).
Bushwick is one of the neighborhoods in Brooklyn that stands out the most. Rather than the usual prim and proper industrial building, Bushwick is full of bright-colored buildings with street arts and graffiti. Besides street art, Bushwick is also a place for galleries and a weirdly placed coffee shop.
