A true oasis amongst the car chaos and pedestrian sea just over the Brooklyn Bridge. A definite must see.

Probably the best view of the Manhattan skyline you will find. It is one of my favorite places in NYC. Montague Street is fabulous!

I went to the Promenade unexpectedly last week and loved and beautiful the views of Manhattan and The Statue of Liberty were. It was clean, peaceful and so many benches to enjoy the views and sunshine.

A really pleasant place to walk or to sit. It is high above and somewhat removed from the water. Beautiful plantings. And an adorable playground at the intersection with Pierrepont.

The BK Promenade is a great place to stroll and take stellar photos with the Manhattan skyline in the backdrop. Close proximity to the F, A, C and E trains and many nice bars and restaurants, you can easily access the Promenade and spend the day enjoying Brooklyn.

Many benches to sit down and relax, though the noise of the BQE below somewhat annoying. Lots of construction going on the lower level walkway along the East river

This is one of the best views in the whole city. It is actually built over a highway that was built in the 1950's. The subway is the best way to get here use the #2 or 3 trains to Clark St.

My husband and I went here last weekend to explore a new Brooklyn neighborhood as we have been doing since moving here. We liked this promenade and it's views of Manhattan...
