there are 2 secret jump ropes hanging up by the water fountain. use them for some quick cardio between climbs.

Solid activity for a first timer, could use more self climbing walls though

Once you start you can't stop... Must reach to the top... Must not fall... Must hang low... You got this :)

Instructors are great. People are all friendly. Come lose yourself here for a couple of hours.

Brooklyn’s premiere rock climbing class acts as a fitness and a community center.

If you see a competition coming up for BKB, you should join... They are the most fun! This one is for partner climbing... Unprecedented!!!

If you come often, think about getting the 12-month membership. Best value for your money.

Great place unless you are afraid of heights.

Good walls but well worn. Terrible facilities. Expensive. Currently a --waitlist-- to enter, limited capacity and limited climbing time due to bad code. How have I given BKB so much slack for so long?

It could be a fun dating idea.

Just found this place. $22 for all day, $5 gear rental. Open till 11 or midnight. Anyone want a climbing buddy?

Their top rope walls are just high boulders; very limited routes. And they don't have showers.

The best routesetters in the business, these guys make other gyms seem amateur.

For god's sake, look up. Don't walk under people while they climb.

Climbing is fun and good for you.

Great space, routes are alright. The front desk could be staffed better
Pedro Nieves JrMarch 7, 2013
Great place to blow off some steam just get to the top

Oh look, half the gym is closed for construction, and poorly done "co-working spaces" are more important than climbing.

No AC during the hot summer days :(. Big fans blow air through the complex though.
