Brooklyn Banks

Rollin' with the Homies

Brooklyn Bridge
Under the bridge, Manhattan side
New York, NY 10038

Banks, ledges, and rails galore! Anyone who likes to skate or bike is going to want to check out Brooklyn Banks. In a city full of hustle and bustle that isn't very accommodating to skaters and bikers, Brooklyn Banks is one of the few places you can go to roll around on real brick and not have to worry about rolling into any problems with pedestrians or cars. Brooklyn Banks, located just under the Brooklyn Bridge on the Manhattan side, has been a hot spot for wheels since the early 1980s. Even if you don't have a set of wheels, you can still come and watch the amazing tricks (or wipeouts) of others at underground events and contests like the Animal Brooklyn Banks Jam.
