Brooklyn Bridge Park

We went to the newly opened Pier 1 section of Brooklyn Bridge Park. Brooklyn Bridge Park is a big plan to turn a large section of the Brooklyn waterfront, from the Brooklyn Bridge to Atlantic Avenue (our street). When it is done it will be fantastic.

This is the plan. The part above the Brooklyn Bridge, Empire Fulton State Park, already exists. It’s a nice park in a great spot, with great Manhattan views, great views of both bridges and even the Statue of Liberty.

The Pier 1 section just opened. It’s very nicely done. The next part to open is Pier 6 (opening this spring), which is closest to us. It is going to have a big playground, so I’m sure we’ll be there plenty.

Our spot on Atlantic Avenue is just getting better and better. We’re about a mile  from this park. A half mile in the other direction will be the new basketball arena for the Nets.

If we can only afford to stay here…
