Fresh air , the water, the bridge , all good!
Great playground with big & little kid structures -- but a long walk uphill to get to it!
No parking in Fort Totten; go find street parking in Bay Terrace before heading over.
Don't even think about parking in the small lot directly adjacent to the dock and boat ramp. There's undercover tow trucks that look like ordinary pickup trucks . You won't even know it happened.
The Fort Totten Pool employees are rude, disrespectful and extremely ghetto. They (men and women) STARE at women and young girls and use profanity loudly and carelessly. It is also very crowded .
Peer across the Long Island Sound through stately Civil War-era structures .
They're pretty good about filming permits here, nice location to shoot in!
One of the best kept secrets in Queens

This pool is disgusting!!!! Went there once, and caught pink eye. Not only that, it's over crowded and the lines are horrible. Not worth it, even if it's free.
nice place to bike ride
Smoke blunts on the rocks!
