Description

Conceived post-Storm Sandy, this multi-level discovery landscape in The Battery uses sustainable, water-conscious features to foster environmental and cultural awareness. Children can experience five ecology zones: Bluff, Riverbed, Marsh, Dune, and Meadow. The park also features ShowBox, the first improv and puppet theater in a NYC playground.
