East Williamsburg is a name for the area in the northwestern portion of the
borough of
Brooklyn in
New York City,
United States, which lies between
Williamsburg,
Greenpoint, and
Bushwick. Much of this area is still referred to as either Bushwick, Williamsburg, or Greenpoint with the term East Williamsburg falling out of use since the 1990s. East Williamsburg consists roughly of what was the 3rd District of the Village of Williamsburg and what is now called the East Williamsburg In-Place Industrial Park (EWIPIP), bounded by the neighborhoods of Northside and Southside
Williamsburg to the west,
Greenpoint to the north,
Bushwick to the south and southeast, and both
Maspeth and
Ridgewood in
Queens to the east.
