Astoria Park

I love the beauty and expansiveness of this park . It saddens me to see garbage on the ground , so I try to pick up a few pieces here and there each time I visit. I'd love to see others do the same!

Just across the river is this beautiful oasis that is never overrun with people! Enjoy running (there also a track ), biking , tennis , a play or a relaxing picnic . They also have free WiFi !

This park is popular for its team sports leagues but the park also includes a skate park , a track , a handful of bocce and tennis courts , and New York’s oldest public swimming pool . Read more

Massive park that goes right up to the river . Has a big pool as well as a skate park . Good spot for a picnic .

Love the view of the sunset . Love how they've kept the children's park maintained. One of the good parks in NYC.

At Astoria Park, one will find scenic views , waterfront views & city views . When you sit by the water, there’s always a gentle, fresh breeze & fresh air all around. Have a picnic or go to the pool!

The track and workout equipment are a great way to get a free workout in with a beautiful view of the river .

For god's sake, be careful if you're biking on the paths. Beautiful park , but the paths are almost always strewn with little twigs and branches; you WILL blow out if you're not careful and watching yo

The public pool in Astoria Park is not only the city ’s oldest (built in 1936), but it also hosted the Olympic diving trials in 1936 and 1964. Read more

Love this Park . Is perfect for running, play, chill .

Bring a blanket and lay out on the big lawn, or pack a bathing suit and combination lock and hit the pool. Squirrels abound.

Very nice bridge view can get really windy and sunny

A great place to run and have the RFK bridge as your background. Also come here to watch fireworks .

Take a trip around the track , check out the skaters, and walk north for great waterfront photo ops.

Beautiful view of Manhattan . The park hosts summer concerts and outside movies . Great Park to go for a jog.

Bring beers , but keep it in Solo cups. Don't be an obvious asshole and you'll never get a summons. Find the tall guy with the 1980's boombox (me) and have a drink. Enjoy the summer. Peace !

This park has everything. Wifi , plenty of benches , historical significance, waterfront views , a pool, playgrounds , picnic space, skatepark, tennis courts , and a track .

I use to live about 6-7 blocks away from hear for about 3 years. I went swimming there always and sat in the park watching what was going on in there when I was just hanging out sitting in the grass.

Spacious park that overlooking Manhattan. There's a track to run, pool, plenty of benches , tennis courts , basketball courts . Basically everything you need.

I love this park , less crowded and you got a great view of NYC skyline .

When you face yourself towards the water, don’t sit on the right most part of park , especially on the incline, you get gust of shit smell from the sanitation plant every now and then.

They have. Super cute and little subtle tree at the park come check it out.

When in Queens you can't leave without eating the best Greek food and seeing Astoria Prak.

56 acres along East River were acquired to create William Jay Gaynor Park (after the city 's mayor from 1909 to 1913). However it was quickly renamed Astoria Park in December 1913.

One of the most romantic spots to bring anyone - after dark sitting next to the River listening to the waves with the view of the NYC skyline is priceless :)

Beautiful place to start/end your run, or rest when you need to catch your breath.
