Coney Island Boardwalk
The Coney Island Boardwalk is approximately 4 miles long along the Coney Island waterfront. Due to its length it does not have an exact address but if you go all the way down Ocean Parkway you will reach the boardwalk. The address I found for it is 3006 W. 12th St. Brooklyn, NY 11224-2816.
The boardwalk is nice for a casual date in the spring or fall when here are no beach goers. (It is also nice in the winter, but it is very cold by the water.) There are many benches along the boardwalk and there is a jetty somewhere in the middle that sticks out into the water. The entire boardwalk (from the entry ramp on Brighton 15th Street until the entrance to Seagate) is over an hour walk so I would not recommend walking the entire thing. Warning: The boardwalk is made of many, many slats of wood, please warn the girl or shadchan before going to this boardwalk or any other boardwalk so the girl can wear appropriate footwear (i.e. no high heels)

One of the most gorgeous spots in the entire city, with views of the bridges, downtown, and the harbor. Pier 1 is the best area to walk and relax. Pier 2 has a roller rink. You can attempt to find metered parking by Pier 3, but it is unlikely you'll find. Alternatively, have the 1 Hotel valet it for you or park in their lot. Should be $20 for up to 3 hours.
