# What is Bushwick known for?

Bushwick is known as one of Brooklyn's most rapidly transforming neighborhoods, adjacent to Bedford-Stuyvesant and Williamsburg. The neighborhood's Dutch-German brewing town heritage informs its current Renaissance as a haven for craft brewers, artists, and creatives. Since the mid-2000s, the Bushwick Initiative has invested NYC and NY State resources in economic development. Restaurants, art galleries, and festivals have multiplied. Vogue named Bushwick the 7th Coolest Neighborhood in the World. Over 91% of housing sits within a quarter mile of a park. To explore (/bushwick-real-estate/), call (718) 666-2696.
