Amazing views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and Lower Manhattan can be had from Dumbo and adjoining Brooklyn Bridge Park. Plus great neighborhood for design, startups, coffee, and boho chic.

DUMBO stands for: "Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass". It's the neighborhood of Brooklyn with alot of cobblestone streets known for its iconic photo opportunity of the Manhattan Bridge
Jared WickFebruary 20, 2015Some of the best skyline views of Manhattan. Great cafes, shops, and parks. Very hipster.
You don't have to wait in line at Grimaldi's if you don't mind take out. Call in your order and then pick up your pie 10 min later! FYI: cash only.
Douglas SouzaNovember 25, 2014The place to take some bridge photos ! Some restaurants and ice cream shops in this area.
Great neighborhood. Especially in summers. Nice views of city. Take the ferry to/from manhattan (or walk across the bridge).
Join the EXP | Explore, Expand, Experience NYC!April 3, 2015We spotted this glass water tower by Tom Fruin off the BQE. Wander through DUMBO to find his famous plexiglass house, Kolonihavehus. HINT: It's next to Jane's Carousel. Read more
Dumbo General Store is now called Almar. New owners from Noodle Pudding restaurant in BK Heights. Great paninis for lunch and Italian dinners.
Kimmie OhhMay 6, 2020DUMBO = Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass. However, Down Under the Manhattan and Brooklyn Overpasses also seems to make sense imo.
Alex RichardsJuly 30, 2015Trendy and cool - Get your butt down to some of the cool delis, coffee shops and bars.- This is a nice area with a lot of cool things to do. There are bars and lounges, restaurants, the Brooklyn bridge park, and the carousel
- thecoffeebeanersNovember 22, 2010Best view in NYC! Come to try New York's best pizza here at Grimaldi's then take a walk t new pier.
Chris MuñozMay 1, 2017To get that iconic view and photo of the Manhattan Bridge, go to Washington St/Water St!
Nomada MAPA Guia de ChiapasJune 25, 2014A beer , a salad and a bread you should Take beside of the carrousel.
Take a walk towards the water and see the view from under the bridge, either bridge.
Renee DiRestaSeptember 6, 2011Take the F train here, then walk around the waterfront park and check out the little shops and restaurants.- Looking for good coffee here? Check out Coffee Box, Dumbo General Store, Almondine, or Choice Market.
- For a quick bite, check out Dumbo General Store, Almondine, Choice Market, reBar, Front St Pizza, or Superfine.
Humberto MartinezJuly 11, 2011Stand at Water St. and Washington St. Look closely through that bridge. Magic.
If you have a question about anything, track down Jeff Mancini. He knows everything. Seriously.
