The Brooklyn Bridge Park site is long and narrow with a crenulated edge fomed by the piers. The site stretches west in an arc from the Manhattan Bridge, through the Brooklyn Bridge and south along the East River to the upland area of Pier 6 and Atlantic Avenue. It is dotted with a number of former industrial and shipping buildings. Access to the site is restricted by the BQE, which also generates a lot of noise. The site is a major gateway into Brooklyn and provides unparalleled views of lower Manhattan Bridges and New York Harbor.
