Description

A kayak and canoe launch sits alongside spray showers and playgrounds, while the grassy areas offer plenty of seating. Beyond the play areas, the park features dedicated courts for handball, bocce, and pickleball. Visitors can walk down to the East River edge to look out toward the Long Island Sound—though the water here is not for swimming—and the space is welcoming to families and dogs alike.
