Gimbel's Bridge

Gimbel's Bridge, located in the New York borough of Brooklyn, is a pedestrian and biking bridge that spans across Atlantic Basin on the Red Hook side and connects to Valentino Pier on the Brooklyn Heights side. The original bridge, designed by Robert Wood Johnson III and completed in 1914, served as a railroad bridge but is now used as a park and walkway.

It has several points for recreational activities for people like nature trails and open grounds with benches and tables for a pleasant outdoor experience.

It also serves as a perfect spot to observe the massive ships coming in before entering the sea or catching glimpses of the Statue of Liberty during its voyage.
