This photograph is of the Brooklyn Bridge Promenade — enter from either side of the bridge. I typically walk back and forth to get a variety of angles and characters within your frame.
From Manhattan :
- Closest Station: Brooklyn Bridge City Hall (4, 5 or 6 train)
- The bridge is just across the street from the subway station
- Follow the bridge to the Pedestrian Path
From Brooklyn:
- Closest Subway Station: Hight Street Brooklyn Bridge (A, C Train)
- The bridge entrance will be a short walk northwest of the station
- Once you arrive the GPS coordinates, turn around for this stunning view
