Explore Brooklyn’s Waterfront
The Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway is a planned 14-mile route from Greenpoint through Sunset Park.
Brooklyn Greenway Initiative’s vision for the completed greenway is an off-street, landscaped route, with separate lanes for bicyclists and pedestrians. It will incorporate green infrastructure elements wherever possible and function as a commuter and recreation route for Brooklyn residents and tourists alike.
