Greenpoint is known as Brooklyn's northernmost neighborhood and a paradox - part small-town Main Street USA, part busy city. Originally farmland, Greenpoint has brick townhomes, church steeples, Dutch bakeries, and stunning views of Midtown Manhattan just across the East River. The neighborhood retains strong Polish-Catholic heritage, with traditional Polish restaurants, bakeries, and community spaces. Greenpoint Avenue and Franklin Street anchor the commercial life.
