  • In our NYC LIFE: WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN - VINTAGE & OUTDOOR DINING we walk along Bedford Avenue & Berry Streets with our dog during the #Coronavirus Lockdown in #NYC to see how vibrant this neighborhood near the Williamsburg Bridge looks during the reopening of New York with outdoor dining during COVID-19 restrictions. We see many restaurants, cafes and bars open with outdoor seating and check out many vintage shops and flea markets set up along the street.

    About JamesandKarla:
    Hey everyone! We are husband-and-wife architectural/interior photographers based in NYC. We started our video channel to act an artistic intervention to help raise awareness of the importance of small independently-owned businesses and the unique character these shops add to the streets and neighborhoods of New York City.
    In our videos we will showcase portraits of storefronts and shop owners in New York City & beyond and capture moments of city life that capture the spirit, energy and cultural diversity of individual neighborhoods. We also bring our dog, Hudson along whenever we can.
    We made it our mission to thoroughly document unique 'mom-and-pop' stores when we began to notice the alarming rate at which they were disappearing. Our critically acclaimed books include “STORE FRONT: The Disappearing Face of New York”, “New York Nights”, “STORE FRONT II- A History Preserved” and “Broken Windows-Graffiti NYC”.
    Come see the city & subscribe to our channel :)

    Thank you for taking me back through the neighborhood I spent 10 years in! I left about 8 years ago and it's fun/sad/exciting to see all of the changes, but also familiar sights! Also great to see so much life & activity. I really miss the energy of the city.

      You are most welcome Tracy! We are glad you enjoyed taking a walk around your old neighborhood with us. It made us happy to see the neighborhood coming back to its vibrant self. We will keep highlighting other streets in the neighborhood too as it is one of our favorite walks to take from the Lower East Side where we live.

    Hi, guys! Once again you are bringing more and more amazing memories of our stay in NYC.
    This time in particular, you´ve stopped right at the doorstep of the place we´ve stayed in Williamsburg! (150 South 2nd Street and Bedford Av, just by that small antiques store Hudson was so happy to visit). Are you following our steps? Hahahahaha.
    It´s good to see that the hood keeps its vibrance and to see more people waring masks than in Manhattan (am I right or was just a perception I have?)
    The Brooklyn Deli with that subway paint on its wall! Joe´s Pizza! Panchito´s food truck! The Dr Marten´s store where I bought the shoes I´m wearing right now! The L train station we used to ride to go back to the island! All those breathtaking murals! Wow, and wow a thousand times again. Thanks a millon times more.
    There are so many places we visited there and to see them trying to stay afloat and fighting...that renews our hope: as soon as Mr Covid says goodbye, they´ll be ok and stronger. As we will.
    Keep doing what you do, your passion is contagious and helps us travel with our imagination to keep memories alive.
    Bye guys, stay safe.

      Hey Christian,
      That is so cool that we stopped right at where you guys stayed while in Williamsburg. We must have telepathy lol 😂! And yes the neighborhood is slowly returning to its vibrant self and people are staying safe by wearing masks. We love all the street art and murals the neighborhood has and of course the great little shops snd restaurants. We plan on walking more streets and highlighting more of the neighborhood in future videos.
      Thank you again for the continued love and support! Hudson sends big kisses too for you from NYC!

    Right across the street from that building (used to be a bank) where the guitar playing is sitting, there was a small department store called "Bitinsky's". I got my first summer job there at 14 years old. That was 53 years ago. Damn, time flies.

    OMG the Bagel Smith is still there! It wasn't called that many years ago. It was owned by a Hasidic Jewish family. They would start at three am every day of the week (closed on Sabbath, of course). We used to go there for breakfast after a night of partying Friday nights for onion bagel and lox or cream cheese. Heaven!

    I was born and raised in Williamsburg(h). I miss the old neighborhood when it was full of European influence, all the buildings were clean, no graffiti or painted stuff on walls. No street vendors cluttering up sidewalks and streets (All merchants had stores). No hipsters! There was an old European atmosphere. As the saying goes, you can't go back home.

    • @JamesandKarla
      @JamesandKarla  3 года назад

      Heru-deshet it is certainly hard to believe how much the neighborhood has changed. The large ethnic enclaves have mostly gone although there are still some pockets including the Jewish area around Lee Avenue and the Italian enclave near Graham Avenue and a small Polish area near the Greenpoint border.

There were great music festivals held at the Epiphany Catholic church during the summer in addition to Italian street festivals honoring patron saints, etc on the North side. Those were extremely wonderful times.
