About Brooklyn Botanic Garden
Brooklyn Botanic Garden sits at 990 Washington Ave in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, beside Prospect Park and the Brooklyn Museum. Opened in 1910 and laid out by the Olmsted Brothers, the 52-acre site is programmed for seasonal plant displays, garden tours, lectures, and hands-on classes tied to horticulture and conservation. Its collections encompass more than 14,000 kinds of plants, and the calendar often tracks the city’s changing light and weather with notable precision. Check listings and ticketing on bbg.org/visit/calendar.
