Slowly, industry moved into the area, bringing with it German, Irish, and Polish workers who would build the foundation for what Greenpoint is today: a neighborhood with an appreciation for great cuisine, cultural diversity, and an unbeatable view of the Manhattan skyline. The same streets once inhabited by workers with dirt beneath their nails are now home to some of the trendiest bars in Brooklyn. A short stroll will take you past Sprintzenhaus, a massive beer hall with more than 100 craft brews, Saint Vitus, created especially for hardcore metal fans, and Bar Matchless, a laid-back watering hole with plenty of beers on tap and delicious food. A gastronome's delight, Greenpoint restaurants are a blend of well-established eateries and up-and-comers. The spirit of the Polish who helped build the neighborhood can be found in places like Christina's, Polka Dot, Krolewskie Jadlo, and Karczma. And for a joltin' cup of joe? Look no further than Eagle Trading Co., Old Fox, or Upright Coffee. Franklin Avenue has become the go-to for fashion boutiques, men's clothiers, and vintage stores. You will find plenty to appreciate in stores like Pas Mal, Alter, Wolves Within, You & Yours Fine Vintage, and In God We Trust (IGWT). There are a number of great bars and restaurants with views of the aforementioned unbeatable Manhattan skyline, including Brooklyn Barge, Pencil Factory, Northern Territory, and Ovenly. A cup of coffee at The Lot Radio or Maman on Kent Street also offer free views of the city across the river. It is easy to appreciate the melding of old with new in Greenpoint. Look in one direction and see a film crew shooting a show like Master of None or The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Glance in another and catch a glimpse of the Greenpoint Historic District where 363 commercial and residential buildings pay homage to the hearty men and women who worked hard to establish such an unforgettable neighborhood.
