Smith St, Boerum Hill

This is a great neighborhood with some nice eateries and upscale shopping. I recommend this area to visit for an evening.

Theres no more common name than Smith but Smith Street has something a little bit special for all music lovers who come to visit New York. Halcyon not only offers up great food in a classy surrounding but its record shop stocks all you could ever want on vinyl and CDs but that’s not all. Their legendary ‘Record Parties’ on a Saturday welcome all comers to have a shot at djing so if you feel as though you have hidden skills, get along to Smith Street at the weekend.

Smith St is a street in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. This neighborhood is a great combination between a small neighborhood and NYC cosmopolitan scene. Over the past few years, the number of restaurant on Smith St has dramatically increased. Some are better than others, but all deserve a look. Smith St is particularly interesting for its boutiques and local designers

I’m not sure what the previous poster was referring to when he mentions a “quiet residential street.” Smith Street is actually a commercial street lined on both sides with shops and restaurants. Smith Street passes through Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens and is known for having some of the best bars and restaurants in the area. Joya, which serves Thai food, is one of my favorites.

In the neighborhood of Brooklyn, you don’t find many streets like this one. This was a very quiet purely residential street with no cars and no loud noises from the freeway. It was a nice place to raise a family or to come to after a long day of work. I also praise the accessibility, the frequency of the buses,
and how well the buildings are maintained by the superintendents, which is very important when
considering moving to the city. You'll find a lot of things here and the neighborhood is bustling with this neighborhood.
