Zuccotti Park

Decorated with beautiful white lights during the holidays. The park is also illuminated with lights built into the ground.

Great place to sit, relax and take in locals playing various table games, kill time while waiting to get into the 9/11 Memorial, lots of street meat and ice cream nearby!

Sam's Falafel , the best tasting and most affordable sandwich in NYC. Sit and eat on obsocky terrace seats and watch Lower Manhattan pass by under the shadow of the once and future World Trade Center .

Probably best known for the Occupy Wall Street protests . Good spot to people watch . Situated by plenty of subway stations .

Many know it as the Occupy Wall Street headquarters, but now that the dust has settled, it’s a symbol of freedom of expression and activism in the Financial District.

plentiful seating in a variety of configurations, plus festive seasonal lights and plantings :)

Needs to be a bit greened up, but a nice place to sit and grab a bite to eat.

The place is honestly a let down (even during the OWS raid, trust me I was there) but you have to go to say to your non NYC friends that you've been.

Cute little park . Nice to just sit and people watch .

Nice park to eat lunch weather permitting!

A good place to see Christmas illuminations and a Christmas tree

Great holiday lights. Not as busy as other parks .

A nice place for a break with lots of trees and shade.

FACT: The park was named after an Italian-American businessman, John Zuccotti, who was a former NYC Planning Commission chairman & a former first deputy mayor. Read about Italian NY'ers on MetroFocus Read more

A lunch and reading oasis in the financial district. Not very green but lots of seating.

Eat a slice of pepperoni pizza from Steve's pizza from across the street and wash it down with a Diet Dr. Pepper !

This is a great place to hang out on a summer night - clean and not too noisy for the location. Pick up some halal or ice cream nearby.

Good breeze here and in front of Brown Brothers (benches ) allowing for a chance to beat the heat.

Police hate in the shadow of the world trade center . The world has forgotten; all the cops gave some, some of them gave it all.

Caught the guy mopping the tables with a old used mop. Makes you think twice about eating or resting on it.

This was the site of Occupy Wall Street . Never forget that!

Formerly called Liberty Plaza Park . After renovation in 2006; the park was renamed after John Zuccotti, chairman of Brookfield Office Properties. Occupy Wall Street protest took place here.

A nice spot to take 5 and chill .
