8Brooklyn Bridge Park
For a blend of urban and natural beauty, Brooklyn Bridge Park is a top destination. Situated along the East River, this park offers spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge, which looks especially magical against the backdrop of fall foliage.
Head to Pier 1 for wide-open lawns framed by trees in brilliant autumn shades, or check out Main Street Park near DUMBO for a mix of industrial charm and fall colors. The views from here at sunrise or sunset are particularly striking, with the fiery fall sky reflecting off the water and city buildings.
