Once a thriving shipping and port area, Red Hook has transformed into an eclectic seaside neighborhood possessing a close-knit community. Located on a peninsula in Brooklyn overlooking the Upper New York Bay and smaller waterways like Gowanus Bay, Red Hook houses many brick buildings, charming storefronts, and longstanding homes, townhomes, and apartment buildings.
The local businesses in Red Hook are what you would expect from a seaside village – charming, unique, and welcoming. From restaurants and bars to breweries and markets, you’ll find plenty of local charm in this neighborhood – not to mention the artistic vibe that exudes from local art galleries and museums.
