GET A GRIP

Yes, you can scale the Brooklyn Bridge, sort of

BY RYAN MCLENDON

GET A GRIP

Have you ever stared longingly at the Brooklyn Bridge and thought, I wish I could climb that? Brooklyn Boulders, an 18,000-square-foot refuge for the urban climber located near the Gowanus, is happy to give you a shot. In addition to providing massive synthetic boulders, 360-degree climbing rooms, and 30-foot walls, Brooklyn Boulders even has a mock-up of the Brooklyn Bridge for patrons to exercise dreams of climbing local monuments. A “Learn the Ropes” class for beginners costs $60 and includes two-day passes and rental gear. But perhaps most attractive to the skinny-jeans crowd (and you’ll see a lot of them here on the weekends) is the dance-club-volume stereo system that cranks out rock while you get in shape.
