New York’s bohemian borough Williamsburg, is a neighborhood one subway stop from Manhattan. The first artists moved to Williamsburg in the 1970s, drawn by the low rents, large spaces available and convenient transportation. This continued through the 1980s and increased significantly in the 1990s as earlier destinations such as SoHo and the East Village became gentrified.

Along with the arty people of Williamsburg, comes the great vintage shop; Beacon’  Closet on 11. street. It’s vintage clothing for reasonable prices clothing and a truly amazing atmosphere that makes it distinct. The music, the attitude and the funkiness of the clothing selection are just something to behold even if you are not really looking for anything specific, you will see something to purchase. I got my Dr. Martins boots for only 30 dollars!
