Brooklyn Bridge Park is an exquisite haven where nature and urban landscapes harmoniously coexist. It offers a captivating escape from the bustling city life, providing an oasis of tranquility along the waterfront. The park's lush green spaces, vibrant gardens, and scenic promenades create a perfect backdrop for strolling, picnicking, or simply immersing oneself in the beauty of nature. What sets this park apart is its unique vantage point, offering breathtaking views of the iconic skyscrapers that define the New York City skyline. Brooklyn Bridge Park is a captivating destination that allows you to connect with nature while being awed by the majestic urban landscape.

  • Tammie Nguyen

Unrealistically, gorgeous! It's more beautiful at night due to all the lights from the skyscrapers. You can actually see the Statue of Liberty from here, at night it's not clear. If you want a clear shot, go for the morning. The park is very nice to get breathtaking views of New York City skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge. The walking trail is very roomy and full of nature's scenery. This park is along the water, which allows you to use the Ferries to get around NY. There are plenty of restaurants near water to enjoy the lower Manhattan skyline. It's definitely a must visit for all tourists around the world.

  • Alex Canizare

Beautiful park! I completely recommend for everyone to go at least once to enjoy the places that it has and the view of Manhattan. It would take you half a day to go to one end of the park to another, but you will enjoy it. There is a lot of things to do. You have the carousel, the tennis, basketball, picket ball courts, the playgrounds, the beautiful scenery, plants, etc. The view from the rooftop of the Empire Store is beautiful! Just go and see it for yourself.

  • Mechelle Turner

Our son wanted to play basketball while we were visiting NYC. We did the tourist thing and walked the Brooklyn Bridge and walked to BB Park. It was a long walk, but it was so worth it! The views of the City lite up at night were unreal. It was so pretty that most of our pics look like fake backgrounds. The park was a wonderful place, lots of people out playing basketball, handball, and roller skating. It was well lit and very clean. So glad we visited!

  • Dipak Oza

Nice park along the waterfront. For walks, play, families, kids, etc. Great views of Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn Bridge. Boutique shops for ice cream nearby. Easy access by bus and ferries.
Playground
A little farther from the bridge, there are pickleball, basketball, and tennis courts. Vast green area and play areas for children to play.
Picnic area
Places to sit with benches, and enjoy a picnic with great views of water and skyline

  • Shreenidhi

Perfect place to spend time, amazing views of NYC downtown, Brooklyn bridge and Statue of Liberty from the distance. Overall a great place. It's in close proximity once you cross Brooklyn bridge. There is a water taxi available and costs you$ 4 if you want to head back to Wall Street.
Playground
There is a lawn big enough for kids to plat

I saw dog walkers,but on leash

  • Michael Ortega

Took the Mrs there for Mother's Day and what a nice place to spend a few hours with the family and eat ice cream. They got on the carousel and then we just spent the rest of the day looking at Manhattan and sitting on the grass. The atmosphere was pleasant and the area was very clean. I plan to go back at night and see my beautiful city lit up.

  • Austin Carson

Before coming here I was told the crime in the area was bad at night, so I was hesitant to visit. I'm very glad my wife forced me to go because at no point did I ever feel unsafe walking through the area. Also, the nighttime views of Manhattan are just unreal. Pictures do not do it justice, you have to see it in person.

  • Bryhan Andrade

Lived down the street from here from 2018-2021. This was one of my favorite places to do walks at night, picnics in the day time until sunset, and would also do some photography shoots here. Great location. Calm and very beautiful. You have a great view of Manhattan. During COVID this was my peace location.

  • julia barinova

These views require no rating. They are a 10. What was a suprise is to see a very easily available public grilling place, where our group of over 100 people who was comfortably seated and cooking and having a good time with incredible views. Very nice idea for a barbecue with the family or group of friends

  • Samrudha Dixit

A very cool space is always occupied by some activity. Recently there was a free photography exhibition. The place also celebrated the 140 years of the Brooklyn bridge. Only when you stand below the bride you realize the scale of the construction for an one and half century old bridge.

  • Deema Tabaza

One of the most beautiful parks I’ve been to! Very well maintained, you can take the ferry from the harbor when you arrive at the park to see lady liberty. You also get to see the infamous skyline view also from the park entrance. The park itself is so beautiful to walk around …

  • Ana Ramirez

This is a nice park. There's a playground, an area for picnics, and the best of all the views to the bridge and the city. This was our stop after crossing the Brooklyn Bridge. There's a public bathroom available and just a nice place to stop and have a break, especially with kids.

  • Peter Langela

Brooklyn Bridge Park is a rewarding finale to a walk across the iconic bridge. This picturesque spot offers breathtaking views of Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge itself. A serene escape amidst the city bustle, it's a must-visit for the stunning scenery alone. Highly recommend.

  • Rodrigo De Luna

Excellent area to walk around or just chill a bit. Lots of people doing different things here which makes it feel alive. The park is well taken care of, clean and beautiful. We stayed at the 1 Hotel which is just by the park and we walked here in the evenings almost every day.

  • Ozzie Allen

Love this park! I live in the neighborhood and often stop to take in the sunset. My family enjoys walking, table tennis, basketball, and handball in the park. It's also a great place for picnics. This summer, I plan to do kayaking, volleyball, and (maybe) pickleball.

  • Briana Harricharan

What a breathtaking area. We were able to grab some great NY pizza and catch the sunset at the Brooklyn bridge. I love being in this area. First time here but not my last time! I think the area is called “Dumbo” there were many bars, restaurants, and shopping nearby.

  • Steven Steiger

Monumental by day, beautiful by night. One of the best viewing spots to see the whole of Manhattan. Especially by night it's an impressive spectacle. There are lots of benches, so you will definitely find a seat to watch.
Dog-friendliness
Dogs are allowed.

  • sara dz

It is a very lovely place to take a walk. I also enjoy BBQing there in the summer. If you have a little kid, she also can enjoy playing at the playground. I just wish there were more parking spots.
Restrooms
Restrooms are busy and disgusting on weekends.

Great place to get away and think. Cool winding bike paths, cool views of the bridges and the city, restaurants close by, outdoor dining, play areas for kids, courtyard area with benches and a table for you to eat, barbecues. It's a nice place.

Educational Center staff are awesome! Very helpful and I hope more kids get to experience reading time and being exposed to the materials in this center. Perfect safe place for kids this summer and a playground just a few minutes away.

Beautiful during the day or night. There is a 25 hour sports complex on the pier where you can play all kinds of sports. So many great restaurants and bars. Definitely family friendly.
