Miscalculated my timing (wanted to go during sunset hence choosing 5pm, but it was winter when the sunset was already from 4pm-ish 😂). Nonetheless, the night view was breathtaking!

It was a smooth travel, thanks to Joseph the guide. Very windy with quite some rain, but I still had a good time.

What a fab play! It went beyond my expectation. The music + dance + stage + costume + makeup + act are superb.

I'm glad I made a reservation in advance because I was able to enter easily just by showing the voucher. I had a seat in the rear orchestra, but it was right next to the aisle, so it was fun to see the cast walking by. Even though I don't understand English, the singing, dancing, costumes, and set were wonderful, and I was able to see an authentic musical, so it was a great memory.

We had a great time with our guide. He was very thoughtfull and liked the extra stories he told about the Statue and Ellis Island.

It’s quite pretty and was amazing to catch the sunset from above. 100 floors above indoors and not windy is great in winter. It’s also good to see where the Twin Towers used to be.

Whether you're a photography enthusiast or simply looking to unwind with a coffee, the Promenade's vibrant atmosphere and stunning vistas make it a must-visit destination for both locals and tourists.

Discover the expansive beauty of Brooklyn Bridge Park, nestled just below the Promenade. Spanning 85 acres along the East River, this green oasis is perfect for those seeking outdoor adventure and relaxation. With its lush landscapes, recreational facilities, and stunning views of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan skyline, the park is an ideal spot for picnics, leisurely strolls, and soaking in the vibrant energy of New York City.

Starting from Cadman Plaza East, this historic landmark invites you to experience the grandeur of New York City from a unique vantage point, making it a must-do for any visitor.

Cultural and Historical Significance

The Brooklyn Heights Promenade is a testament to the power of community advocacy, having emerged in the mid-20th century as a victory over a proposed highway that threatened the neighborhood. This scenic walkway is not only a beloved public space but also a symbol of urban planning success. Brooklyn Heights itself, dating back to 1834, is a historic neighborhood known for its stunning brownstones and tree-lined streets. It has been home to notable figures like Walt Whitman and Truman Capote and is recognized on the National Register of Historic Places. The area also offers a glimpse into its past as a center for anti-slavery movements, with nearby landmarks and museums enriching the cultural experience.

Local Cuisine

While the Promenade is perfect for a leisurely stroll, the nearby Brooklyn Heights neighborhood is a haven for food lovers. Dive into the local culinary scene with New York-style pizza, artisanal bagels, and gourmet coffee from quaint cafes. Don't miss out on Lassen & Hennigs for homemade desserts, Sahadi’s for Middle Eastern treats, and Colonie for a delightful brunch or dinner. For a sweet treat, try the croissants at L’Appartement4f or the vegan donuts at Cloudy Donut. The area is brimming with charming eateries offering a taste of Brooklyn's diverse flavors.
