Parks & Nature
A different feel than Central Park. This park is an old woodland that they let revert. You can get totally lost in the back trails of this Brooklyn Gem. Grand Army Plaza and the Brooklyn Public Library at the North End. Brooklyn Botanical Gardens adjacent and the Brooklyn Museum next door to that. Great way to spend a nice afternoon.
