It doesn't take a passport to visit Brooklyn, as some Manhattanites
might lead you to believe. Still, Brooklyn can feel a world away.
And that's precisely what locals love about it. It's independent.
Fiercely headstrong about maintaining its individuality. Tolerant
of the different, the foreign, the weird. But what outsiders might
be surprised to learn is that Brooklyn is less an undifferentiated
mass than a collection of neighbourhoods, each with its own
distinctive character and history. From Bay Ridge, Bed-Stuy and
Bergen Beach to Weeksville, Williamsburg and Windsor Terrace,
Brooklyn is a patchwork quilt of communities stitched together with
mismatched threads from nearly everywhere in the world. Celebrating
its in-your-face diversity, but continually churning those
differences into something fresh and unique, Brooklyn embodies a
hip and cool version of the American experiment. E pluribus unum -
from many comes one. Here are 111 places to start your
explorations.
