Brooklyn Bridge

Lower Manhattan / DUMBO · Pedestrian bridge · Free

Walk from Manhattan to Brooklyn, not the reverse — you walk toward the skyline, not away from it. And go at 7am or you'll be fighting a wall of selfie sticks the whole span.

The 1883 walk across the East River. Free, unforgettable, and ruined only by walking it at the wrong hour.
