If it’s east of Williamsburg but not quite Bushwick, it must be East Williamsburg, right? While this neighborhood’s boundaries and actual existence are subjects of debate, there's no denying that there are people, places, and things located near the Grand Street, Montrose Avenue, and (technically) Morgan Avenue L train stops in northwest Brooklyn. History certainly doesn’t clear things up. What is now East Williamsburg had initially been part of the Dutch settlement of “Boswijck,” which later became the Town of Bushwick and (for a period in the early-to-mid 1800s) contained the Village of Williamsburg. Regardless of the confusion, you can see that lineage recalled in the many streets bearing the names of early Dutch landowners such as Devoe, Meserole, and Vandervoort. Today’s East Williamsburg maintains an industrial feel from its still-active warehouses and former warehouses converted into residential lofts.
