Description

Set up with picnic tables, this small waterfront pocket functions as a quieter alternative when nearby Somino Park gets too busy. It is a straightforward spot to watch boats and jetskis on the water or catch the sunset, with views that stretch to the bridges as well as the Manhattan skyline. While some visitors note that views further toward midtown Manhattan might edge this one out, it remains a reliable, low-pressure option for a pause by the river.
