SEE

New York is a global city best experienced through its many neighborhoods. We chose to have our wedding in Greenpoint because it has always felt like a place slightly out of time, even though the re-zoning of its industrial waterfront in 2005 ushered in a period of aggressive residential construction whose footprint grows larger by the month. The northernmost neighborhood in the borough of Brooklyn, Greenpoint was a center of maritime commerce and shipbuilding in the 19th century – its dockyards hosted the construction of the USS Monitor, the Union's first ironclad fighting ship in the American Civil War – and supported printing, pottery, glassworks and petroleum industries until the decline of American manufacturing after WWII. Generations of immigrants worked and continue to live in Greenpoint, including the second-largest metropolitan Polish population after Chicago. Greenpoint is accessible by onlyone subway line (the G train) and borders two bodies of water, which contribute to its vaguely secluded quality. We've mapped some of our favorite places here and and throughout NYC. We hope you enjoy and come back soon!
