The industrial and secluded area west of the BQE is known as Red Hook. Located right next to the Gowanus Canals, it's the perfect hood to explore on foot, as many artists call this haven home. The neighborhood is home to small businesses and restaurants, while indie shops and cobblestone streets will transform you back into Brooklyn's past. Grab an old school italian meatball sandwich from
Defonte's, located in the heart of Red Hook. Stop by for happy hour at
Sunny's and don't forget to bring your camera and sense of adventure.
