Visiting
Brooklyn Botanic Garden is located in historic brownstone Brooklyn, just a short subway ride from midtown Manhattan. Plan your next visit today!
Thank you for adding me. I think your public garden is absolutely beautiful. Although I have seen numerous photographs of your gardens, it is definately on my list, "to do's".
Thank you for the beauty BBG has dispayed to all. I used to walk to BBG from Pratt Institute to draw the water lillies. I may live in California, but my heart is in Brooklyn...
Thank you so much for the add...I miss the BBG but it holds a very special place in my heart as I have visited so many times while I lived in Brooklyn. Sending love and wishing you a beautiful weekend... xo
Thanks for the add, BBG! I'm so glad you're there. I love to come watch the turtles in the pond and just walk around, forgetting for a while that I'm in the city. You're awesome!
