"tourist-free, youth-oriented neighborhood"

The streets on the south side of the Williamsburg Bridge tend to be quieter – there certainly isn’t the number of bars and restaurants there that you see on the north side of Grand Street in Williamsburg. This area is mostly residential, and it’s close to the neighborhood’s nightlife. Businesses here tend to be of a more commercial sort – like upholstery businesses.
