Description

Wedged between the Brooklyn Museum, the Botanic Garden, and the Central Library, the park is reached by climbing a flight or two of stairs facing Eastern Parkway. Because it feels a bit forgotten next to its neighbors, it remains a clean, pleasant escape with multiple entry points for anyone seeking a pocket of greenery.
