About This Place

The story behind Brooklyn Bridge Park.

85 acres of waterfront — Jane's Carousel, the Brooklyn Bridge overhead, and the best skyline view in the city.

Tucked into DUMBO, it captures a side of Brooklyn you won't find on the typical itinerary — the kind of spot our editors keep coming back to.

Why We Love It

It's the kind of place that quietly earns a permanent spot on our shortlist — equal parts atmosphere, craft, and that unmistakable Brooklyn energy.
