5.0 miles(9.0 km) ANSWER Brooklyn is part of New York City, one of the five boroughs. If by "New York City" you mean Manhattan, another of the five boroughs of the City, then the distance from the closest shore of Brooklyn to the closest shore of Manhattan varies from 600 feet to 4000 feet. That is the range of width of the East River, which separates Brooklyn and Queens from Manhattan.
