  • Vivek Raut

Iconic park with some stunning views of NYC. Enjoy the beautiful Skyline of NYC over a FDR drive from the park. Heaven for photographers. Both the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridge adds the beauty to this place. Lots of restaurants near by. Perfect place to be for any mood, any weather or any time of the day. U won’t be disappointed.

  • Rohan Moitra

Awesome stretch of green parkside under the Brooklyn Bridge. The park has a commanding view of both the Brooklyn Bridge and the lower Manhattan skyline. Easy to get too from the Subway, or from the East River ferry DUMBO stop that's just a couple of minutes away. Don't miss Jane's Carousel, either, right next to the park.

  • Megan Owen

Perfect place to see the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges. It would be so fun for kids with Janes Carousel at the park. There are also little shops and places to grab a quick bite or coffee right there. It’s a little cool and breezy with being by the water so bundle up if you go in the winter months!

  • Aditya Narayanan

Iconic and simply stunning views of the skyline. I especially enjoy this spot because it offers a panorama of the Brooklyn Bridge and all of Lower Manhattan. Come during the afternoon - shop and eat in DUMBO and enjoy the carousel before relaxing here for sunset and nighttime views.

  • Teddy Krimendahl

Amazing area for photography, good views and good places to it. 10/10 would recommend going to DUMBO and just walking around or eating somewhere like "Butler" on Water street, nearby to the views along the East River. Coming from a New Yorker, would recommend coming around here.

  • Jeffrey Rozman

This park gets the job done. As in it's a park. It gets the obvious boost of being water front and being in DUMBO, but as far as park-ratings go, it's alright. You can sit in grass. You can look a few trees. And you can go to DUMBO

Stunning views of both Brooklyn bridge and Manhattan bridge and the city. Note that the Brooklyn bridge lights are switched off at 1 am. So get there before that if you are looking for good pics.

Dumbo, a tapestry of old and new; water, metal, sand, rocks, plants, exclusive buildings, industrial spaces, open spaces, restaurants, and live performers.
