See Brooklyn Bridge Park in its summer splendor
Eye On Real Estate
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Brooklyn Bridge Park is an Instagram mecca.
Some of the spots in this mecca that are most popular with photographers are kinda crowded now that summer’s here.
One hot spot is at the edge of the water on Pier 1, near the area where NYC Ferry riders line up to wait for boat arrivals. Photos taken there capture iconic views of the World Trade Center, Lower Manhattan’s skyline, the East River and the Brooklyn Bridge.
We’ve been trying to figure out the optimal times to take pictures on Pier 1 during the summer. We discovered an ideal moment — if you don’t mind getting out of bed early on a weekend. It’s 7:30 a.m. on Sunday.
