Fun Fact
Common nighthawks and chimney swifts can be seen in the park at dawn or dusk. The nighthawks, which are declining in number, breed on city rooftops. The chimney swifts, not suprisingly, breed in chimneys.

Movies With A View: Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid

Syfy Presents BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK'S MOVIES WITH A VIEW

Butch Cassidy And The Sundance KidButch Cassidy Poster 291px
Directed by George Roy Hill
1969, Rated PG, 110 minutes
When you're trapped in a tight spot, with the entire Bolivian army ready to take you in - or out - it's nice to know you have friends.  Paul Newman and Robert Redford are bank robbers who discover that running away from your problems isn't always the answer in this classic buddy picture.

Short film: Birdman Of Brooklyn by J.L. Aronson
All along the waterfront, and throughout blue collar Brooklyn, pigeon fancying has been an active pastime for centuries, handed down from one group of residents to the next. Gabe Gonzalez can be found on any given morning and late afternoon, steadfastly keeping this tradition alive.

The Conservancy's most popular event returns for its tenth anniversary year! Movies With A View is one of the city's premiere outdoor film series with an eclectic line-up of films and breathtaking views of the NYC waterfront. The films are chosen by an all-volunteer Film Committee and each feature is preceded by a short film. DJs from Brooklyn Radio kick off the evening, spinning tunes as the sun sets, and RICE sells delicious dinners onsite. Bike valet provided by Transportation Alternatives.

Sorry, no pets and no alcohol allowed in the park.

Check out the stars with Orion telescopes generously donated by Syfy! The Amateur Astronomers Association of New York will be at the movies to help you locate stars and planets in the night sky.
