Brooklyn Bridge Park

Brooklyn Bridge Park, Brooklyn, New York is a 4.8 acre park located on Brooklyn's waterfront under the Brooklyn Bridge and across from the southern tip of Manhattan.  This small gem of a park offers breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline and has opportunities for both passive and active recreation.

 

Visitors can enjoy a stroll along the water, a picnic in the grass or watching their children on the playground.  The waterfront theme is evident throughout as the children’s climbing equipment is embellished with decorative sails and the sandbox is shaped like a boat.
