#BrooklynBridge #NYCguide
When I read tha poem Brooklyn Bridge, I thought to watch that in you tube. When I watch that, the brodge, the river, the cycle rider, the neatness of the bridge, the moving of vehicles and you madam, everything is beautiful
Looooove the walking the Brooklyn bridge ... one of my faves things to do when living in NYC
100% agree you gotta start from Brooklyn. But most tourist do it backwards
Yes so many people do it backwards you have to start from the Brooklyn side! Thanks for watching!
Excellent videography and editing. Great use of masking, timelapse, aerial footage and transitions! By far my favorite bridge in New York and I have walked and cycled across it numerous times. I still have to walk across it during sunrise though!
Thanks so much really appreciate that you noticed all this! Yes it’s a stunning bridge and you have to go at sunrise, so stunning!

The guy on the camera is simply spectacular
Agreed, so glad you see the difference and love it too, he's so awesome at what he does, I definitely want to have him help me more on upcoming videos, thanks so much!
Loved this video! Such a beautiful bridge with spectacular views of NYC. Jen, you look amazing and your presentation was excellent. The videography and editing are great, so well done. The history of the bridge was very interesting. Another great video which I enjoyed so much. Thanks for all the helpful hints on walking the bridge and how to get there.
Happy to share and so glad you loved it thanks so much!
Ever since I first walked across the bridge (as she says, from Brooklyn to Manhattan!) I fell in love. Now I always do it whenever I visit NYC. Truly a national treasure!
I love love your red dress it's so enchanting. ❤️
Your tips are on point Jennifer! And that skirt is everything!!!
Agreed I love this skirt! Need to wear it in more videos! :)
Just watched Ken Burns' awesome 1981 Brooklyn Bridge documentary and clicking around to see how it looks today. Loved this. Jen is completely adorable and lifts your spirit; grinned the whole time 💕 thank you and keep being awesome
Great tip on walking from the Brooklyn side to the Manhattan side. Can also walk the Manhattan Bridge to Brooklyn and then walk across the Brooklyn Bridge back to Manhattan
Yes great point wonder how long that would take!
Very informative video! One of my favorite tip was the one where you said that one should start from the Brooklyn side as compared to the Manhattan side. I have walked over the Brooklyn Bridge on three different occasions when I visited New York and ALL three times I walked starting from the Manhattan side and had to keep on looking backwards to take photos or to see the skyline, so I said the next time I am there I will start from the Brooklyn side and here you came with this video. Thanks for all of the tips and info.
That bridge is usually crowded. You filmed that at the perfect time
Yes so glad I got there early to film this! Best time without the crowds!
Jennifer O'Brien best time right now during corvid ( less crowds and not much else to do outside )
Thank you for the tips Jen. This was really informative and helpful, will be visiting for the first time next week. You looked and did an awesome job.
Wow lovely information Jen. Loads of love x
I took a guided tour of the Brooklyn Bridge about 2 yrs ago. Lots of history in that bridge. Pretty amazing... enjoyed the tour...
This was extremely informative. You shared some great tips for those of us planning a trip to the city. Thanks!
Very cool views. Always happy to see your videos. Good Job!
Amazing content like always. ..ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! ! Can't wait for the next video. .
Thanks so much I’m really bringing it for these upcoming videos this summer next one should be a great one!!!
Beautiful photos in a wonderful bridge!
Great video and I really enjoyed all the awesome edits! Love it!
Thank you very much appreciate it!
"One of my favourite fasanations of NYC. Thank you Jen for an informative and great video."
It’s an amazing bridge!!! Great tips! Thanks.
Walking across the bridge in style. Great video Jen! Your photos are just beautiful. Red is definitely your color. 🥰
Thanks! Love red so much! :)
Loved your video. The red dress against the Brown/ gray bridge was a smart idea - perfect set up
I will cross March 1st and hope I do not get rained out
Hi Jen! I love watching all your videos.. beautiful and awesome! make more videos please...😊
Wow Nice view and how Good you have Explained
I have once studied about this bridge in Book and I am very Glad to see it
Hope to see you with more informative videos
😊
Great video. And the view from Brooklyn to Manhattan is truly better. Makes sense. It is, after all, the Brooklyn Bridge.
Loved the video! Have walked it twice, back and forth. On the Manhattan side, the Brooklyn Bridge City Hall is the most convenient, clean restroom and has a great view of the bridge!
Thank you for your tips gorgeous! 💗💗
Thanks happy to share!
One of the best views in NYC 😍
Yes seriously the best views!
Where are you from florida
BEST view is to cross the Manhattan Bridge - less traffic, higher elevation and view of Brooklyn Bridge
Wow, another great video and very informative. Nice way to learn the rules for the Brooklyn bridge. That will definitely be on my to do list for when I visit next year. Such a sad history for such a beautiful bridge. Your photos look amazing.
Kind regards,
Michael
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Yes it is a sad history for such a beautiful bridge, but definitely a must-visit spot! Thanks so much, appreciate it!
@@Jenniferobrien you're welcome. The more videos I watch the more I see what a great city NYC is. I wish your channel all the best and looking forward to seeing more.
Hope you're having a great day.
Walking across the bridge at sunrise has to be an amazing experience! Great way to start the day
Yes seriously one of my favorite experiences of all time!
Great video!! Thank you so much I will be doing all of the mention! I have some questions about the subway card do you have any videos?
Cool video I did not know all that planning to take a walk across the bridge in August can't wait
Yes so happy to help for your trip in August!
This another awesome video by Awesome Jennifer 😍😍😍
Very nice video. I would love to walk across that bridge one day.
It is a pretty great sight . One of my favorite places in NYC.
Yes same total favorite!

Awesome video on the bridge! Love the history! And you gave us a full video, not the abridged version! I'll have to walk it some time!
Oh not the abridged version of the bridge, thanks for the fun pun and watching and commenting!
Great editing and photography of the bridge and skyline
Thank you so much really appreciate it!
Thanks for the tips😊
You're so welcome!
Editing on point with this vid Jen!
Thanks so much!
Jennifer, thanks for the video on the bridge, we have been planning a crossing from Brooklyn to Manhatan and your 1st rule rpoves we were thinking right. The other rules will make our crossing better and your photo sights will help also.
Oh yay so happy to help and hope you have a wonderful visit! :)
Very Great video thanks alot
OMG!!
Your channel is growing so fast!!! So exciting!
Thanks so much!
How many subscribers did you get in about a year of time, Jennifer?
Hi Jennifer, and yes I went the opposite way, but I went midweek, a nice straight level walk and great views, a tourist must do thanx
Yes a must do is right! Love it so glad you enjoyed your walk too!
Good tips by beauty! Great video!
Thank you!
We are expecting many more videos jennifer. Thank you.
Great info!
Happy to share!
That red dress is popping!
Idk what’s more beautiful the view Or you! I
Can go for both of yous! 😍
Hi Jessica , I also travel to NYC in May... maybe we will see us ;-)
And Jennifer... thank you for this video. Greetings from Hamburg and a happy new year.
Excellent & professional. Its terrific
Thank you so much, really appreciate it!
Great advice about direction. When I visited Sydney and walked across the harbour bridge I deliberately began at the North Sydney end (Milsons Point railway station) and walked south to Circular Quay in central Sydney. That way I could keep to the left side of the bridge, have a great view of the Opera House etc and not get in anyone's way.
Interestingly bike riders have their own dedicated corridor on the other side of the Sydney Habour Bridge away from pedestrians, but unfortunately there are flights of steps on either side! Imagine climbing those with a bicycle on your way to work each day. :)
Wow that’s smart to separate the two but stairs sound annoying! I loved visiting it too when I went to Sydney didn’t do the climb on top of the bridge but maybe another day! :)
Thank you 👍🏼😊🇹🇹
Great adventure, excellent and the best..😀💖⚘
Literally beautiful ❤️❤️..u and the bridge both dear
Thanks so much!
Very informative 👌👌
Thanks for watching!
Great info! I'd love to style you for your next video and help you enhance your presentation, you're stunning!
What does that mean? Thanks for explaining more!
awesome video..thanks sweetie 😀
Thanks!
When I lived in Brooklyn I often walked across the bridge. Anytime before 9:AM was fine with less tourists and worst of all school classes both of whom were always wandering into the bike lane!
she's so cute. This is the video that i saw sunday morning before i headed to the brooklyn bridge that day lol
I enjoyed walking over the Brooklyn bridge two years ago.
Yes such a fun nyc bucket list thing to do!
Nice, I can't wait to go back to my home city again.
Adrian Jimenez same here!
Woo hoo!
Very best speech with leadership role in cover up video in Brooklyn bridge.❤❤❤❤
Thankyou
Thank YOU! :)
Your editing is unreal! 😍
Thanks so much appreciate it!
I say, if you're gonna walk the bridge, start at the Tillary St entrance. Get the full experience. lol. Great video!
That outfit was actually great for the photo
You're so pretty I love watching your videos
Awww thanks so much!
Nice video!!!
Thanks!
Very nice, as always. I walked the bridge late last year. I took a taxi from Manhattan to the Brooklyn side, early weekday morning, and enjoyed the peace, skyline views right and left, minor graffiti and padlocks. I also managed to avoid the bicycle lane and, looking down, had a good view of the traffic directly below. My only failing was not wearing a red dress. Is it obligatory ?
Ah haha unfortunately you messed up it is obligatory! But you are forgiven!
Interesting that Roebling also designed a bridge in Cincinnati a few years before the Brooklyn Bridge that has some similarities
Oh wow I had no idea how cool! Need to google it!
Hey, Jenn, Until recently I did not know this bit of family lore, but Franklin Edson, born in Chester, VT, as many of my forefathers were, was mayor of NY when the bridge was completed and was the first to walk over it.
Oh wow didn’t know that thanks for sharing!
Love your videos
Thanks!
Are you an editor?
Yes, I am a film editor.
I study filmmaking majoring film editing.
Using different softwares starting from editing to coloring, etc.
It’s 2am right now, and I’m binge watching your videos. Your videos are not only exciting but they’re very informative. Also, they are edited so well. I’m glad to be a subscriber.
Oh yay thanks so much means a lot! Appreciate it!
An engineering marvel.
Yes it is!
I am your new subscriber 😊
Im visiting 1st week in Aug. Im nervous of the metro the most
Wunderschön!
What time did you film in Brooklyn bridge?? Thx
You need to do an update to the bridge
How much time do u need in this bridge &
times square?
Is there a way going to the walkway that is wheelchair accesible?
I should have watched this yesterday bikes had me paranoid on the bridge.
Awwww no bikers are terrible on the bridge sorry!
Trying to picture PT Barnum leading those elephants across the bridge 🤣
Omg yes I cannot picture it either! What a crazy day too bad it was pre-vlogs and CZcams!!!
What was your favorite thing you learned? Thanks for watching and subscribing and commenting below!
The elephants that was really cool
@@adamharford5099 Agreed who knew, it's my favorite fun fact about this bridge and maybe NYC in general so cool!
Such a useful video! You’d say simple thing a bridge 🌉 and you gave us so many great tips and knowledge is a brief video!
Best way to walk to get photos! Thanks
I learned Los Angeles wasn't the second-largest city in America. Quite a surprise! Other than that, excellent video as always. That's why I subscribe.
Superb video - it's iconic bridge and well known all over the world - my only pet hate is the amount of graffiti people have done and damage to this much loved bridge.
It's a beautiful bridge. Some tips are very good, but many are just stating the obvious. You don't have to keep looking back. If you actually walk the bridge all the way to Brooklyn, you'll encounter the Manhattan views on your way back. Also, Brooklyn bridge is very worth seeing as you walk away from Manhattan.
I want to go to NYC so bad😩
Very beautiful and positive American girl 😊
hi jen. ❤️ brooklyn bridge ❤️ and u look amazing ❤️
Thanks so much!
Hi really liked your bid but im just here to say that some times there are some fruit venders on the bridge and they moved the bike lane bye!
Can one climb on the side of the bridge and sit on one of those rails above the cars? Is it illegal?
What Would you recommend Brooklyn bridge or system island ferry ?
Oh both are similarly wonderful, depends which is closer to you and if it's a hot day Staten Island Ferry gives you extra breeze on the water, also Brooklyn Bridge can be very crowded especially at certain times, so depends on the photos and experience you're looking for, hope that helps!
Q bonita
Gracias!
Hello! I have a question. Do you have to pay to go to the bridge?
Gigi Costa no, the bridge is completely free! :)
How much does it cost?
LA at 4:45- and I wonder without Brooklyn if New York would be the top 5 most populated city in the United States?
Good thing we go through it in GTA IV.
