Q:
Is there any street parking late at night close by?
A:
Not really. Parking is very tough to find, especially at night. You'd have to drive around for a while looking & hope you get lucky.

Beautiful view at any time of day. The Freedom Tower, Statue of Liberty, and Empire State Bldg are all easily visible.
Smorgashburg at the beginning far south on ATLANTIC AVENUE on Sundays April through November (PIER 5).
Great for people watching, jogging, or romantic strolls.The Northernmost part ends near The Watchtower and the Promenade is like a balcony over the BQE.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Donna A.Brooklyn, NY434487212Nov 25, 2010
If you live in NY and you've never been to the Promenade then you've never lived. O.K. with all drama aside this is a beautiful view of BK and the NY skyline. It's a great place to enjoy the diversity that NY offers with a beautiful backdrop.
It's a perfect place for a stroll after dinner in BK Heights, walking around with friends, family, or that special someone.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jessica D.Brooklyn, NY5778862310Apr 4, 2013
Brooklyn Heights Promenade is probably one of the most beautiful places in Brooklyn.
I have been to the Promenade twice so far. However, I don't remember the first time if I walked the full path or not. Any way, this is a great place to come for a little peace and quiet, a date, take pictures, and etc. You get a great view of the Brooklyn Bridge, Lower Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, and nature of course.
I hope to bring my boyfriend here one day, so we both can enjoy the great view together!
If you haven't checked out Brooklyn Heights Promenade, you should definitely check it out!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Annette F.Long Beach, CA18120995Oct 17, 2016

Amazing views of lower Manhattan. Definitely a Kodak moment.
Great place to chill with friends or to take a leisurely stroll, especially on a warm day. I love coming here just to clear my mind. It's also kid friendly. Awesome for walking your pet. Even perfect for biking, jogging or running.
Just breathe in the amazingness. Oh, and a plus for being so close to Smorgasburg in DUMBO ;)Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Will T.Los Angeles, CA8614364May 12, 2011
We live in NYC! Just went to a free funk concert here and daaaaang, what a blessing it is to live in this city.
Beautiful scenery. Picnic. Awesome music. Live in the moment of your company. Thursdays nights. Concerts. Hit this place up!
360 turnaround. You feel high on life!
Can't really explain it, but spring is here. Get on out.
Here's the website where I found all my info:

See you on the flip side...that is if you live in Manhattan.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - 567129757Jun 22, 2011
Gorgeous.
I took the train into Brooklyn and for some reason, I decided to trust my friend with the directions. We did eventually get there, but it took us about 30 minutes to walk from the train station when we finally realized we got off about three stops too early.
When we finally got there, it was amazing. We went at night and it was packed, but the view was breath taking and made the walk worth it. After our 30 minute walk to the Promenade, we walked the entire Promenade and then walked over to the new park under the bridge. Needless to say, my legs were about to fall off...and I wasn't even close to home yet.
This is the PERFECT place for a first date and definitely worth heading over to at least once in your life.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Alan L.Brooklyn, NY3527443594Aug 24, 2013
Although I think the Brooklyn Bridge park is better than the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, it is still a 5 stars. A great view of the Manhattan skyline and the Brooklyn Bridge. Take your pictures. I think this is also a great place to go for a jog as well. A great and romantic place to bring a date. Definitely a must see. I think this place would look even better at night, but I haven't had the opportunity to go see it at night. Still a great place during the day. A must see and go.
Just sit down and enjoy the view.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0
