Few other enclaves inspire the kind of love-it-or-loathe-it partisanship that this one does. Near the L-train stops, it offers a fantastically hip array of bars, restaurants, and shopping, and some sparkling new developments. You can find anything from cool edgy fashion stores, to great beer gardens, high end culinary restaurants as well as the Brooklyn Flea market by the river on Sundays and just an overall great atmosphere.
