Brooklyn Shipyards And Pre-Civil War Warehouses - Red Hook

Today, Red Hook, Brooklyn is set against a backdrop of shipping yards and pre-Civil War warehouses and a mix of today’s edgy art galleries and trendy bar, cafes and restaurants. In the 1600’s this area was a major shipping and transportation center and this lasted through the the early part of the 19th century. During the late 19th and early 20th century the area experienced a period of decline. The area, like most Brooklyn neighborhoods, has experienced a resurgence and has developed into a vibrant and diverse neighborhood.
