This Bronx waterfront park pairs kayak launches and fishing piers with grassy lawns for quiet picnicking.
Description






Beyond the shoreline, the park features a floating pool anchored in the East River. Back on land, the recreation options expand to include basketball and volleyball courts alongside a playground. It is a space where active sports share the waterfront with quiet spots to read, sit, or watch canoes set out into the current.
