Whole Foods is about a ten minute walk from the apartment. Selection is great but it can get really crowded. Highly recommend the fresh bread!

Sightseeing

It's an absolute must to walk down to the bottom of the Williamsburg bridge from the apartment and stroll along the East River through Domino Park. It's a very cool urban park that's been designed to elevate the old industrial feel of the neighborhood- all centered around the building that was once the old Domino sugar factory.

Ferries out of Williamsburg on the East River

Most people don't know, but there are actually two ferry stops in Williamsburg that you can take to get to Manhattan - either to Wall Street or E. 34th Street. The North Williamsburg stop is at North 6th Street and Kent Ave and actually the area by the river there is really nice to walk around. The South Williamsburg stop is 440 Kent Ave. There are also stops in Dumbo (Brooklyn) and Hunters Point S. (Long Island City, Queens). For more information: https://www.ferry.nyc
