Sunset Park
The actual park is one of the highest natural points in Brooklyn, and it has a great view of Manhattan: not just the facades of the buildings on the west side, like a certain Brooklyn Heights promenade, but of a whole chunk of the southern tip of the island. You’ll definitely be able to see the lights show from up here—along with half the neighborhood! [photo]
