The Granite Prospect in
Brooklyn (NY)

Incredible city views, but absolutely no parking and difficult to access if you want to bring picnic items over.

Good spot with nice view

Just a small little place, we were there around night time. It offers a MESMERIZING view of NYC skyline. It seemed kind of hidden. Its pretty easy reachable through the Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Beautiful view both day and night.

Breathtaking sight! One of the most gorgeous place to visit in NY. Could sit on the bench for hours.

An amazing park (free)

Hidden gem! You need to walk a little bit away from crowds and you find this exceptional viewing spot. And can stay there for hours..

Sit and watch the skyline of Manhattan. Day or night.

Beautiful place to visit. Loved the city line from the south street seaport to the Williamsburg Bridge

Day or night, very peaceful place to sit

Cool part of Brklyn Bridge Park. You get great panoramic pics of Manhattan from here. The NYC ferry picks up and drops off here. Plenty of food choices nearby as well.

Nice view of Manhattan?

For me its the best view of lower manhattan and probably the best view of all of nyc. We did it in the night and the views arw simply magical. Great view of being under Brooklyn bridge and spectacular views of lower manhattans financial district. You can also get a great view of the statue of liberty all lit up at night. The park itself is beautiful, you can easily spend hours here just taking in the magnificent view.

Perfect spot for sunset of Manhattan. Fly away your worries with this beautiful scenery.

Very beautiful place Calm and often not much crowded It gives you a nice place for nyc skyline photography The point is not known to much so it’s great for elaborate photo shoots Enjoy a walk through neighborhood and watch sunset at this point and you’ve got a nice evening

I have been there with my friends and my family. We were sticking around enjoying manhattan views. It a nice place but if you wanna get very great experience visiting that sight. I am gonna suggest you to come over at 6 pm ish when the sunset starts ... very romantic and fabuluos

Great place to take pictures and enjoy the Lower Manhattan skyline on the East River. I came from Brooklyn Heights Promenade, on my way to Dumbo, until I found this cool spot and enjoyed the view. Thumbs up!!

Located inside Brooklyn Park. Great place for viewing nyc skyline, jogging, and photographing alike it’s a pet friendly area. #NYCshootingLocation #NYC #NYCSkylineViewSpot

Great point of view for Manhattan skyline with the bonus point of the water as foreground. Unfortunately been there on daylight as I've been told it is not suggested to go there night time alone and with expensive camera equipment. Still enjoyed but I can only imagine the outcome of a pic with all lights on.

Amazing place to visit in NYC. Beautiful night views of Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridge skyline. It’s one of those places you’ll never forget and is definitely worth the effort ! Bear in mind that if you want to walk across the bridge, you’ll have to walk back to Tillary St where it crosses Adam St. There will be a long pedestrian and cycle pathway towards the bridge.

Here is a beautiful view of Manhattan.

One of the best places to take pictures and to see the NYC skyline. If you are just visiting NYC for a couple of days, make sure to make this park one of your destinations because it has one of the best sceneries NYC has to offer. There are also many activities to do at the park such as biking, playing basketball, picnics and barbeques. It's a great spot for families to take their kids to because of the wide space and endless activities the park has to offer.

Come here to make all those NUC selfies!!!

Great place for a stroll. Beautiful place!

Great place for a romantic afternoon of watching jet-skiers and drone pilots do their thing over the East River.

​One of the best places for sunsets, made prettier by the charming Manhattan skyline. Mornings and early evenings are great times to visit too. Popular with both tourists and locals.

One of my favorite places in Brooklyn (and arguably the best place to watch the sun set behind downtown Manhattan).
