  1. This is really the “Italian Section” of Williamsburg, called that for at least 40 or 60 years,which the Times won’t use for a heading. Like it or not, it’s is the Eastern part of Williamsburg. Don’t judge these buildings by the outside, you never know what’s on the inside. They’re all over 100 years old.

  2. 10:23 is right – Manhattan Avenue is in Williamsburg.

    What do people think is the correct Bushwick boundary? Historically (like 150 years ago, when they were separate towns), the Williamsburg boundary was Broadway to the south and Bushwick Avenue to the east. Is that what it has been in the past 25 to 50 years? And what is it now?

  3. It’s funny how everyone is an expert on this site… while it’s clear none of you really know Williamsburg pre 2000.

    I grew up about 10 blocks away from here, further east. Since I was a boy, that’s always been considered Williamsburg, not Bushwick, not East Williamsburg.

  4. In this case prime is relevant. Already the powers that be have successful renamed a portion of Bushwick East Williamsburg. Now further, it’s not even Williamsburg. What’s the area south of Williamsburg going to be called South East Williamsburg (or SEW).
