Neighborhood Beat: DUMBO

Program Description:
Brooklyn's neighborhoods are constantly reinventing themselves. This waterfront area was once known as Fulton Landing because it was the site of the ferry to Manhattan in the years before the Brooklyn Bridge was built. In the late 1970s it became DUMBO (for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) and a haven for artists. Brooklyn Independent Television's Kecia Cole hosts this new regular Neighborhood Beat segment, taking us to the galleries, performance spaces, cafes and shops that make DUMBO a magnet for people from all over the world.


Neighborhood Beat is a series featuring Brooklyn's diverse neighborhoods. The programs are produced and directed by neighborhood reps.
