It's almost unknown to typical tourist , who usually takes shortest ruote between staten island ferry and wall street. It's a pity, it is so touching in its semplicity.

Great place to spend your lunch on a hot day, because of the breeze off the water.
Nice shady spot for lunch , but the helicopter traffic is constant and noisy .
A worthy memorial for Vietnam veterans.
