The Rink at Brookfield Place, photographed by New York Dearest

My suggestion is to visit during sunset when the cotton candy sky makes ice skating in New York City all the more romantic.

Located in Lower Manhattan, the 7,350-square-foot ice rink at Brookfield Place allows you to show off your skills while soaking up views of the Hudson River, One World Trade Center and New Jersey. My suggestion is to visit during sunset when the cotton candy sky makes ice skating in New York City all the more romantic.
