View of Manhattan from Brooklyn Heights Promenade

Highlight • Viewpoint

A waterfront promenade with its own bike lane, a beautiful view of Manhattan and, above all, no traffic lights.

Scenic view of the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan

Highlight • Viewpoint

Yes, a great place to admire the skyline! Whether during the day or at night! But it is most beautiful at sunset!

View of the Brooklyn Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

No, the Brooklyn Bridge wasn't built by a woman, but Emily Warren Roebling played a crucial and indispensable role in the project's completion. When her husband, Chief Engineer Washington Roebling, was unable to work due to illness, Emily took over day-to-day construction supervision, acquired the necessary skills, and acted as a liaison between the construction site and her husband. She was the "political force" and the "eyes and ears" for the bridge, thus enabling the successful completion of the structure.

If you want to run over the Brooklyn Bridge, then I recommend the early morning hours. Since you have the bridge almost to yourself. Since you are awake early due to the time difference anyway, this is not a problem.

Brooklyn Heights

The photos show the side where there are almost no tourists. And I find the view of the Wirkloch Bridge at least as good as from the other side.
