There is so much to do in this area. Good restaurants, beautiful views along the river and when walking across the bridges. Parking can be a problem, but we drove into Dumbo early and found parking in a garage on Furman. $50 for 6 hours but it was a secure place and close to everything.

It's become quite a tourist draw with the completion of the beautiful Brooklyn Bridge Park along the harbor. The park is spectacular. But you will also find the Time Out Market with a good collection of food stalls and lots of fancy apartment buildings. The bridges overhead are impressive.

If you are heading to Brooklyn, don't forget to check out DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass). This historic area has plenty of shops, thriving art galleries, unique eats, and phenomenal architecture. There is something fantastic to experience around every corner of this New York City destination.

Many shops and photogenic streets. The Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges are really close. There's rollerblading and other sports area by the pier. Nice view of downtown Manhattan. Good photo spots for the Brooklyn bridge. The statue of liberty is briefly visible.

I did not realise that Dumbo is an acronym for the area - Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass. This would fit in with other areas of Manhattan such as TriBeCa. It's a nicely restored area of Brooklyn and there are plenty of cobbled streets and old warehouses that have been restored for new purposes such as flats, restaurants and bars. It's definitely an area of Brooklyn that needs to be explored if you have not visited the city before. There are some amazing views of the surrounding area to admire as well as places to sit and relax after a day walking around.

Been to NY a few times and crossed the bridge once but never set foot in Brooklyn. Really enjoyed wondering around this cool, funky part of the world. Great views of the two bridges , lots of good bars and cafes and restaurants. Will sending be back to explore further

We love coming here when visiting NYC. We have walked the Brooklyn Bridge from the Financial District area. We have also taken the ferry from Manhattan. We have also taken the subway. It's a cute and trendy place where we can stroll peacefully, take pictures of Manhattan skyline, have a bite to eat, sit and relax. There is an amazing rooftop at Timeout Market. We have only visited during the day. We're looking forward to returning at night so that we can view the Manhattan skyline.

Great feel to the place. Got the ferry from pier 83 and had a wander around the area. Lovely shops and nice happy feel around the whole area. The skyline with the broklyn and Manhattan bridges In the background is awsome. Really great feel after the intense crowds of lower Manhattan day before
