Loved our walk along this promenade on a cold, yet sunny morning. Hard to find a better view of the Manhattan skyline. Highly recommended.

One of the best skyline views you can enjoy for free from Brooklyn. It is extremely easy to access, walk and engage with the vibe. You can choose to walk your dog, view and buy street art, seat and enjoy the panoramic perspective; or simply read a book with a view.

What an excellent location to visit day/night. You can stay and watch stunning views of Manhattan from here. Walk over the Brooklyn Bridge and then drop into this location to rest. For autumn visitors, it is a good idea to have thick clothes on cos' it can be way too chilly. 🚨 Bonus: You can bump into a raccoon chewing a brownie or a cake on the street bins! 🦝
