Taking a walk on the Brooklyn Promenade



Suspended above the BQE, the Brooklyn Heights Promenade provides a stunning view of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and South Street Sea Port. This is a very peaceful and romantic spot to come with your sweetheart, to bring a book and a cup of tea or coffee, or to just sit on the benches and enjoy the view. Even though it's a bit chilly right now, the Promenade is still worth the trip.

Make sure to read about the history of NYC on the historical plaques located on the sidewalk and railings while walking on the Promenade.
