Located directly on the East River, the popular Brooklyn Bridge Park in New York is now one attraction richer this Advent. All the better as it was a long time coming. ließ: “Eislaufen neben der Brooklyn Bridge war Teil des Plans, noch bevor der Park 2008 erbaut wurde. Wir sind hocherfreut, dass es zustande gekommen ist und damit eine lang ersehnte Winterfreizeitbeschäftigung in einer wunderschönen historischen Umgebung anbietet,” so Eric Landau, Präsident des Parks.

You can grab a bite in the café and admire the view in the warmth if you need a break; thanks to its location in the middle of trendy DUMBO (Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass), there are also numerous other popular restaurants nearby, such as the River Café, Luke's Lobster and Van Leeuwen Ice Cream. The time slots are 50 minutes each and can be booked in advance here. Glide also offers skate rental if you've left yours at home.
