RECOMMENDED: 50 best New York attractions
This beautiful section of the Brooklyn waterfront is an 85-acre expanse with several unique attractions such as Jane’s Carousel, a restored 1920s merry-go-round, and riverside esplanades with gorgeous Manhattan views.
Check out Pier 2, a three-acre site designed specifically for "active recreation" (sporting leagues, picnics and roller skating) with a 6,300-square-foot lawn and a water play area, and the new Squibb Bridge. Also, don’t miss out on new art installations that pop up frequently!
