Both programs take place at the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge in the heart of Brooklyn Heights. Boasting the greatest views of lower Manhattan, Brooklyn Heights rivals the architecture of midtown Manhattan. Considered to be the first suburb in America, the Brooklyn Heights of today is much more than a suburb. It has become one of the most desirable neighborhoods among the five boroughs of New York City. With a five minute commute to the Stock Exchange via subway, many of today's residents are Wall Street workers looking for more space and neighborhoods with old New York character, something in abundance in the Heights.
The Brooklyn Heights Promenade will take your breath away. The unique park built atop the double-decker Brooklyn-Queens Expressway draws tourists worldwide for its spectacular views of the East River bridges and the skyscrapers of Manhattan. As you walk the length of the promenade, small memorials for the World Trade Center still adorn its space. An abundance of boutiques and restaurants offer visitors many options for a truly quintessential New York experience.
