Vans opens indoor skate park in East Williamsburg
When the popular music venue House of Vans closed in 2018 after nearly a decade on the Greenpoint waterfront, many in Brooklyn — especially within the skateboarding community — were devastated.
Now, after a brief hiatus, the popular shoe brand has firmly reestablished itself in the borough with an indoor public skate park.
The space, which opened earlier this month in a former warehouse in East Williamsburg on the Bushwick border, is the first skate park operated by Vans.
