When summer arrives, there’s no better way to enjoy the season than with a picnic. 

As a resident of 363 Bond Street Apartments, you have access to fantastic amenities that make hosting a picnic both easy and enjoyable. 

Here are some easy summer picnic ideas that will make the most of our beautiful rooftop area, green spaces, and other wonderful community amenities. 

Rooftop Picnic Perfection

Our rooftop green spaces are the ideal spots for a summer picnic. 

The stunning views of the Brooklyn skyline provide a picturesque backdrop for any gathering.

Spread out a blanket on the lush green space (or relax in our selection of comfortable outdoor furniture) and enjoy a relaxing meal under the open sky. 

Here are a few tips to enhance your rooftop picnic experience:

  • Pack a Variety of Snacks: Opt for easy-to-eat finger foods like sandwiches, cheese platters, and fresh fruit. These are not only delicious but also convenient for outdoor dining.
  • Bring Refreshing Beverages: Stay hydrated with a selection of cold drinks. Consider packing a cooler with iced tea, lemonade, and sparkling water. Avoid using glass products and containers to prevent shattering and messy clean-ups. 
  • Utilize Our Grilling Cabanas: Take advantage of the outdoor grilling cabanas available on our rooftop oasis. Grill up some tasty burgers, hot dogs, or vegetable skewers for a fresh and flavorful picnic meal.

Cool Off at the Rooftop Pool

After enjoying your picnic on the rooftop, why not cool off at our rooftop pool? 

The Brooklyn Crush rooftop pool is a resident favorite, offering a refreshing escape from the summer heat. It’s the perfect way to unwind and relax after a fun picnic. 

Don’t forget to bring your swimsuit, towel, and plenty of sunscreen for a perfect day by the pool.

Indoor Picnic Ideas for Excessively Hot or Stormy Days

Sometimes the summer weather doesn’t cooperate. But just because there are thunderstorms or excessive heat waves with high humidity doesn’t mean you have to cancel your picnic plans!  

Our indoor resident lounge is a fantastic indoor alternative for summertime fun. 

Here are some ideas to make your indoor picnic just as enjoyable:

  • Create a Cozy Environment: Set up a picnic area with blankets and pillows on the lounge floor. Dim the lights for a cozy and intimate atmosphere.
  • Share Your Favorite Picnic Dishes: Encourage your neighbors to bring their favorite summertime meals, side dishes, snacks, desserts, and drinks to your indoor picnic party. 
  • Board Games and Movies: Enhance your indoor picnic with some entertainment. Bring along board games or enjoy a classic summer blockbuster movie on one of the lounge’s TVs.
