518 Meeker Avenue is located on the border of
Williamsburg and Greenpoint in Brooklyn.

Williamsburg is bordering Greenpoint to the north; Bedford–Stuyvesant to the south; Bushwick, East Williamsburg, and Ridgewood, Queens to the east; and Fort Greene and the East River to the west. 

As of the 2010 United States Census, the neighborhood had a population of 32,926, an increase of 2.0% from the 32,269 enumerated in 2000. Since the late 1990s, Williamsburg has undergone gentrification characterized by hipster culture, a contemporary art scene, and vibrant nightlife. 

The streets of Williamsburg are never dull. Big thoroughfares such as Bedford, Lorimer, and Graham are always bustling with shoppers and diners and the quieter, tree-lined side streets are often punctuated by older residents sitting out on their stoops, playing cards. 

You can’t do better than Williamsburg for dinner, drinks and dancing. Famous restaurants like Da Francesco and Ringolevio are only steps away from 518 Meeker, Met Food Supermarket is just 2 blocks north, there are also many laundromats, shops, bars, health & beauty places, arts & entertainment venues to make living here a pleasure.

Greenpoint is the northernmost neighborhood of Brooklyn. Greenpoint is is now home to a large artist's community. The nightlife, restaurant and music scene have burgeoned in recent years as energy and activity in Williamsburg creeps north towards Greenpoint. Brooklyn’s northernmost point was once a beautiful pasture, hence the name “Green Point.” Today, a lot of historic architecture remains, in addition to the condo boom.
