Why go

The park lets you choose your own distance along a changing waterfront rather than stop at one overlook. Walk from pier to pier for views of bridges, ferries, and Lower Manhattan, then notice how planted spaces sit on a former industrial edge. Its mix of open lawns and riverfront paths makes the harbor feel close and active.

What to look for

Walk beyond Fulton Ferry Landing to choose a lawn or pier and enjoy a longer waterfront pause.

Useful to know

The park spans several piers; this point represents the park rather than a particular gate. Check alerts and the hours of individual facilities.
