Labor Day in Brooklyn: What you need to know
Happy Labor Day, Brooklyn! There’s a lot to do around the borough on Monday (a federal holiday since 1894), but there’s also some routine stuff that won’t be happening. Luckily, the Brooklyn Eagle‘s got you covered.
What’s happening?
Brooklyn beaches are still open…
…but not for much longer
New York City beaches close for the season next weekend, but they’re still open for Labor Day. Grab your swimsuit and a friend you don’t mind sitting too close to (Brooklyn beaches will probably be packed), and make a day of it. Not into sand? You can make use of one of the city’s free outdoor pools (which also close Sept. 8).
