This is my favorite activity when I have someone visiting me in New York (assuming it's a nice day). City-skyline views are incredible; it's a lovely walk; DUMBO, Brooklyn Heights, and the promenade are great places to wander once you reach Brooklyn. The walk gives me vertigo like nothing else in the world, but it's still my favorite tourist activity... more
Our family of five walked the bridge this week. It was a great experience to see this historically important engineering marvel up-close and to see the great views of Manhattan, Brooklyn and the harbor. I thought we would be nuts alone on the bridge walkway but I was surprised at the large number of pedestrians and cyclists enjoying the bridge.... more
Visit City Hall Park with its gas- lit fountain and then stroll over the Brooklyn Bridge. It's a little more than a mile from Manhattan to Brooklyn over the bridge, but it feels shorter because of the fantastic views. This is an engineering marvel, built in the late 1800's of huge granite blocks, high over the Hudson River, with a... more
Especially in light rain this walk takes your breath away. What a great city, what great views. more
We took the subway from Manhatten to Brookly for $2. Then walked back over the bridge.Everything they say about the experience is true. You see the most amazing views of Manhatten, of the Empire State Building, of the Statue of Liberty. It gets a bit breezy, but that's half the fun. It took us 25 minutes to walk from one... more
Needless to say that Brooklyn Bridge is a fantastic experience. It's free, it's pedestrian friendly and you get to see some amazing views. But please do keep in mind that there's one part of the road for cyclists and another part for pedestrians. If you're one of those folks who loves to take panoramic pictures, this bridge will be a... more
This walk may be 1.3 miles long, but the walk is so inspiring with the views of Manhattan that it feels more like 200 yards. The Statue of Liberty is stunning and the photo opportunities are immense. Miss this pure joy at your peril, but try to choose a nice day. I'm sure it would be a bit bleak on... more
We took the subway from Midtown Manhattan to York street Brooklyn.Then its just a short stroll to the bridge,but we went via Brooklyn Heights. The bridge itself and the views are well worth the visit and we spent just under an hour strolling from the Brooklyn side to lower Manhattan,with lots of stops along the way for photos. more
WALK FROM BROOKLYN TO NEW YORK and NOT the other way around. This will give you better views of the NYC skyline as you walk across. It's an easy subway ride to Brooklyn and the subway station is about a block from the bridge entrance. It takes about 20 minutes to walk across depending on how often you stop for... more
