Camila R. • June 27, 2011This is a beautiful park that is a must in New York City.All the buildings around it are historical and you feel like you are in another era. Need a key to go in, but it is seeing it from the outside.
Petr M. • July 29, 2012Great place to see about 10 squirells running through the park. Amazing for photos.
Nina M. • April 23, 2010Lovely for after-work quick dates. Sit in the park during warm months and enjoy the waterfall. Brick oven pizza/restaurant right down the block and Rare restaurant too.
Leah N. • May 3, 2021Beautiful park with many seating arrangements and open lawn space. One of the favorite parks in new york.
DoubleDeuce • June 29, 2022This space is much improved with the new turf surface that included keeping the basketball goals.
Lynn B. • August 6, 2020Great strangely segmented park! Grab a coffee between 34/33 & 1st as extension of the park. Then the East river to smile back at you!
James R. • April 2, 2012Park is now reopened! Great park to enjoy Magnolia Cupcakes an people watch! I love the West Village !!!
Farid C. • March 25, 2010Great park to walk at night. More gards than people but amazing and relaxing view of the river.
Institute for Integrative Nutrition • September 12, 2011A great place for Fall IINto Action conference participants to visit while in New York! Check out our NYC Healthy Living Guide on parks and walking tours for more info.
Randy F. • November 27, 2012Seal park, as known by locals, is prized in the summer thanks to the greater shade it provides vs the parks further west.
Samantha S. • June 20, 2012The fence is great. While all the benches are unoccupied behind the locked gates, they were kind enough to build an 8" ledge around the park so that the plebeians have a place to sit. Brilliant!
Marius W. • November 14, 2016A true hidden gem, this park features monumental architecture with an amazing location in the middle of the East River. The tram across Manhattan is worth it on its own.
Dominic G. • October 10, 2015Great dog park nearby, great views of Hudson, walking, running, and cycling. Great place to people watch too.
Spencer V. • October 26, 2014Great park, clean and well cared for. Other dog owners are friendly and responsible.
James J. • September 4, 2014While everyone crowds up Central Park, come here and read a good book on the grass. Soak up the sun and the breeze. Look upon the beautiful people.
Foursquare City Guide • June 8, 2018This is a little park in the heart of the West Village. The AIDS epidemic deeply affected the NYC gay community in the 1980's. A memorial was created in this park to honor those who passed away.
Martina C. • September 8, 2019A wonderful park with magic views, and nice enjoyable seating areas and playground for children and dogs.
