Olive St, Williamsburg

This street shares the advantages of Olive Street with the wonderful park area, which I think is always a nice retreat in the concrete jungle known as New York City. Nothing says summer to me more than a nice day spent outside, not shopping, but just enjoying the sunlight. Beyond the park, Olive Street isn’t all that interesting, and I wouldn’t cite it for having the best housing options, but I do think the location, easy access to a metro station (L, Graham Street), and nice people make up for its lacking in other areas.
