A place worth knowing

Choose the waterfront as your destination rather than a backdrop to rush past. Brooklyn Bridge Park offers a way to spend time looking outward, with the river between you and Manhattan’s towers.

Park entry is free. General opening is 06:00 until 01:00 the following morning, but playgrounds, sports areas, bridges and other facilities have their own schedules. Weather and maintenance can change access. This entry uses the Pier 1 / Old Fulton Street approach as a starting address, not the entrance to every part of the park. The cover was photographed in May 2015.
