The northern tip of Greenpoint has seen a slew of openings recently, including instant hits like Achilles Heel, Alameda, and River Styx. The neighborhood dining scene is going through some dramatic changes right now. Here's a roundup of more recent additions:

1) The Bounty, a new bar and seafood restaurant from the team behind The Drink, is now open on Greenpoint Avenue.
