Wonderful park , enjoy anything from Walking, Biking and Tennis .
The culture of the tennis courts there suck, the players play, and play for as long as they want and if they see someone waiting for a turn... good luck they don't respect the one hour courtesy match
Awesome view of the bridge
Doesn't feel like it's part of New York but it's definitely worth a trip
One of my favorite bridges since it leads me back to my home state
Go find the artwork on the coast
Great sunset view !
Don't be scared to unclip and walk up the pedestrian bridge . The cycling team guys are assholes.
The map attached to this park on foursquare shows a different park than where the lighthouse is.
beautiful area beautiful sights quiet
Enter bridge on Hudson Terrace on Jersey side
Nice Panoramic view of George Washington Bridge from here.
I've discovered that this is unofficial venue for Ft. Washington Park . Check into the other one.
Great view !
Don't like bridges ... scary.
