Park with views of Lower Manhattan and the harbor
This tree-canopied area near the Brooklyn Heights Promenade sits atop a hill that leads down to Fulton Ferry Landing and DUMBO.
Not as crowded as the Promenade--tree canopied area, surrounded by beautiful heights residences...quiet, nice for reading. Good view of harbor. Also, it's at the top of this cool San Francisco-type hill (Columbia Heights) that leads down to the Fulton Ferry Landing/DUMBO.
