There are a lot of hidden spots that are just a treasure in NYC. The Promenade in Brooklyn Heights is one. Specifically that spot near the carousel in what is the developing Brooklyn Bridge Park.
It is in Dumbo between the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges. The picture above is the Manhattan Bridge where you can see the N train go by.
They have some benches in front of the carousel where people where hanging out. Some kids were dressed up and taking photos. It was either Prom or Quinceanera I don't know which.
All in all it is just a great place to hang and enjoy the great weather and wind off the water.
