Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge is a requisite for visitors to New York, and it's well worth it. But please recognize some caveats.


First, you're not the only one who wants to walk the bridge. On days with many tourists--summer, and holiday time year-round--the bridge can be enormously crowded. The walking path is narrow in places and but, especially at the beginning of the walk, for those starting in Manhattan, congested by vendors.
