Downtown Entertainment.
With summer in full effect you may be thinking about plotting out a vacation to some of the nations big city’s and there’s no bigger name than New York. Housing massive entertainment centers, endless shopping, and exquisite dining, New York City is the capital of the world, and Manhattan has long been its main island for quite some time. That being said, a quick glance north east of the island will reveal a cluster of high-rises toped off by a unique skyscraper aptly titled after the city’s name, “The Brooklyn Tower“
The Brooklyn Tower’s sleek dark design have led to some calling it The Eye Of Sauron office building.
Brooklyn has been labeled as Manhattan’s sister city for a long time, however the city is now looking to expand into its own realm, funding multiple construction projects to make way for a new era. Today, Downtown Brooklyn has began to rise in popularity, becoming especially popular amongst travelers looking to experience something new during their vacation to New York City.
Renovations.
Downtown Brooklyn has been renovating, not only funding the construction of multiple new buildings but even handing out grants to businesses small and large to help boost the city’s economy. Downtown is now littered with new office and residential spaces, along with a great deal of mix-use centers as well.
Despite the new overhaul of the area most of Downtown Brooklyn’s colonial architecture has remained, large in part thanks to most of the buildings being labeled as historical landmarks. This hasn’t stopped Brooklyn one bit, instead opting to build on top of old buildings rather than tearing them down. Such being the case with the Brooklyn Tower, whose base is the site of Dime Savings Bank Building.
Despite the reputation of municipal buildings most will provide public areas for people to sit back and relax while taking in the new skyline. Most of these places have even added new benches, gardens, parks, and even playgrounds, making them perfect for stopping by during your visit.
Taking it in.
With Downtown Brooklyn looking to finally make its mark in the New York skyline, many buildings have taken the free liberty to start to build up. Much of these buildings are mixed-use residential and commercial condominiums with many residents being able to shop, live, and work all within the same city block.
Nowadays people seek convenience, and with so many different lifestyles jam packed into one small section, you’re bound to find vibrant culture unlike any other. A stroll down the street will reveal a unique collection of shopping, dining, and entertainment that will keep any visitor engaged for hours. Not to mention plenty of public seating areas for you to sit down and enjoy a meal while taking in the New York way of life.
Speaking of public areas, if there’s one thing Brooklyn prides itself on, is its vast collection of up-and-coming artists scattered all throughout its neighborhoods. Downtown Brooklyn has sought to capture this essence, not only remodeling its sidewalks for public events, but even closing off certain streets to help host block parties for public enjoyment.
Nightly Expansion.
This expansion has more than spilled onto Downtown Brooklyn’s nightlife, not only adding new bars and grills, but even taverns and dining halls. Dining halls in the area feature a great deal of foreign cuisine as well as great drinks, making them perfect for anyone looking to enjoy their night out in Brooklyn.
