Terrific park with a fabulous view of Lower Manhattan . There are numerous playgrounds for all age children. Each is fenced & grouped by activity type. The age appropriate years are posted at each.

Get down to the grills and the long line of picnic tables with umbrellas to sit under. You’ll feel like you’re a part of the Brooklyn community down here. Read more

Lots of great views of lower Manhattan , catch the ferry on a nice day! Eat ice cream or just walk from the far end to DUMBO!

Get their early and grab a grill. Great views and the best way to make your own dinner !

Oh you got some cute tablescaping ideas from Pinterest? Chopped kale salad ? That's nice. Your burgers are burning. Watch your grill, not your 'gram. No, you can't have some of this steak .

Great view and tons of seating. Great place to sit while waiting for your laundry to finish.
