Sightseeing
Brooklyn Bridge Park is a total gem. The views of downtown Manhattan from the piers are inspirational. Each pier has a different theme and you can take a stroll to explore all of them. There’s often public art on view in the park and there’s always great people watching. If you’d rather bike, you can rent a Citi Bike using the Lyft app. There are many Citi Bike stations close by and a bike path in the park. Closer to DUMBO there’s an excellent ice cream spot called Ample Hills. Well worth the walk or ride!

Prospect Park was designed by Olmsted and Vaux, the same designers as Central Park. It has sprawling grassy lawns and ambling forests. Like many urban parks, it was structures, restrooms and some community spaces in the park. This is a wonderful place to picnic or spend a good chunk of time. On Saturday morning there is a farmer’s market, and in the summer there are tons of free concerts.
