Nice park to just seat beside water and enjoy the time.Problem: No Parking.
Small park with a really rustic feel and good views of the city. It seems a lot smaller when you’re on a boosted board. Wish there were more bikeways here. I’d estimate that it’s no more than 1.5 miles of bike paths altogether.
This is a really nice waterfront park with a spectacular city view. It has a number of play fields, and some short walking paths in addition to the piers that jut out into the bay, which are absolutely the best feature of the park.
Nice park with fantastic views - from one spot you can see the skylines of the Financial District, Midtown, downtown Brooklyn, and Jersey City, all juxtaposed against a mix of water, greenery, and industrial buildings.
Such a relaxed area such a beautiful view you could see the Verrazano & Staten Island, Statue of Liberty, Jersey City Manhattan, have a cool part that you can walk out towards the water and just sit by the rocks and chill out
Amazing spot in the city. Dont miss out, just go there! Cheers
A recent complete renovation of the waterfront has resulted in a unique and breathtaking destination. The team of Parks and Recreation that keep this place running and maintained need be highly praised for their commitment to the job and the community. The restrooms are always clean and the staff is constantly tweaking the grounds.
This is my happy place, and now it seems to be for others as well. Very peaceful, spacious, non busy- crowded spot.
Not the most accessible, but well maintained grounds with athletic fields for soccer and baseball
Love this park. Visit all the time with @cheweries. First started coming in the winter but now Im the summer 2020 even with Covid, the park is well maintained and everyone social distances. I love coming here as it is so close to the ferry terminal and I live near Rockaway and I take the ferry from there with my dog
Amazing chill spot
🌳⚽️🌅 Off the beaten path in Industry City. It is worth visiting. As you can see from the photos, the views of Manhattan are splendid. Theres a soccer field, public restroom, bike tracks, and running paths. You can lay in the grass and have a picnic here. People also go fishing here. Its relaxing and not crowded. You can even watch the sunset.
Chill quiet peaceful park with a somewhat beautiful waterfront view
A hidden gem and hard to find behind industrial waterfront. Well maintained with bathroom and fields. Epics views of Manhattan and Statue of Liberty
It was nice place with beautiful view. Amazing I wanna go over there again n again
Great looking field, just hard to find from the normal street area.
Lovely chill corner of Brooklyn where people go to on weekends for out door games. This spot (picture) even had a guy leisurely fishing & had a great view of the Statue of Liberty. Well.. she was quite small to be fair, but lovely nonetheless.Would think this would be nice for a picnic area!
My kids and I really love coming here. Its one of the lesser known gems of this part of Brooklyn. Though theres no playground, theres lots of space to ride bikes, run around, play ball, etc. And the water looks so pretty with the rocks all around. Its a real tranquil place. You can usually see ducks, fish, and little shrimp swimming around, and Ive seen plenty of people coming here to fish, too.
Great place to spend the evening. Outstanding view of nj and lower manhattan!
Great for children field trips
Good view for a local sunset person and for every one good field to play futbol⚽, baseball⚾and good for running🏃💨💨
Beautiful views of NYC, parts of NJ and the Statue of Liberty! This is a great way to get away!!!
Very relaxing place, nice breeze and a beautiful view, not crowded.
Very quiet and relaxing park but as the whole city there is no such a thing like clean
Bush Terminal is a hidden gem of Sunset Park. New park with nice views. Love how its so clean and have a path that goes a bit out to the ocean. Super awesome.
Great place to get mugged or shot at night. Very creepy place with creepy people
Great hidden gem with an amazing view. Ive lived and driven around the area for over 20 years and just found out about this park. This park has a fantastic view of the city. Its so nice here I dont really want to let people know about it.
Nice park to walk and have a picnic. The have a big open area for baseball and soccer
It closes a little earlier, but its a beautiful view and area.
As my second visit ever of this scenic waterfront park i noticed it comprises a bicycle, walking or running trail along waterbody with nice views of Manhattan downtown, NJC skyline and Statue of Liberty. Views are even better from the pier at the beginning of the trail. There benches along the trail and a couple of big turf fields for sports. On a nice bright day it is a great place to visit especially with friends and family.
This is the best low radar park in Brooklyn, hands down. Its so open and a lovely place to just take a walk and find some inner peace. It is not frequented by many residents so it is alot less full than the other local parks. Great ocean views, smoking is possible. Not much police presence only parking security which is nothing. Parking is available. Great place for family gatherings and romantic picnics, as well as dog walking. They do a really good job cleaning the grass. Its not poop infested which is great. But dont stay past 8pm cause youll get locked in like I did lol thats not recommended.
Nice and cool but far away
Great Sight seeing with alot of things and buildings that needs historical attentions and great place for family picnic and play grounds of along the shores of Brooklyn NYC and great place to discover new species of birds and 🐠 fish all kinds of fish and great for fishing 🎣 And may i ad calmness and romantica views. Trust me, i enjoyed it. H E.
Came here for a soccer game. Turf is very short and kids with regular cleats were slipping like crazy. The field cannot be seen from the street so its a bit hard to find. They do have bathrooms which is a plus. No seating to be found.
I love this place the sunset it’s wonderful
Small hidden gem. Love taking my dogs here for unleash hours. Just watch out for Karens...
This is such a beautiful park bear the water, with views of the skyline, the Statue of Liberty, space to sit on a mound, bicycle track. It is better to go there early morning or in the evening during summer. It was surprising to see a smaller crowd here than most parks. Ideal place to sit and enjoy, or walk or workout.
A small but very nice park. There is a small parking lot at the entrance. A bike path, a grassy area to sit, some benches on the water, a soccer and baseball field and two piers to walk out to to see the fidi skyline.
No park is worth criticism and anything that restores nature back to her deserved respectable origians must be received with gratitude.
Great place to visit with your loved ones
Interesting little park. Really nice views of Manhattan from both the park and an old pier. The sustainability aspect of the park is very cool, but honestly there is not that much here. There is a nice big turfed area for soccer fields, a baseball diamond, and some benches. There is a really nice and well kept bathroom. There is no really grassy area to sit out, or really any shade in the summer. Still, a coll little park to take a quick walk through.
Small cute park by the water. Free limited parking
Beautiful green spot. Clean. Great city view.
Enough distance to social distance.Great space ,an unpolished gem, a bit neglected but worth the visit . Nice fields and some scientific things going on here .Geeks and jocks alike can enjoy this space . I hope I didnt violate any rules with that .lolKnow your neighborhood.Enjoy .
Love to walk on the path. Great view of Manhattan and Lady Liberty. Lots of birds; ducks, geese, seagulls. Also, great to play soccer or any field sport.
Beautiful and tranquil spot to take in the view of the River. The park is getting popular so dont wait too long to visit.
Its a very nice park that has a little strip of land that goes out into the water. You can get very beautiful sunset shots here, and it has a romantic air about it. Ive seen a few couples come out here to just relax or eat. You get spectacular views of Manhattsn, Jeresy, and Staten Island, along with the Hudson. Lovely place.
Amazing,Calming and Exploration park to go to.
Beautiful place to take a walk or run.
Nice park with baseball field and soccer field and a Manhattan view. plenty of grass area for picnic but would be nice for more trees so there are more shaded area. sun at noon there were brutal.
We did volunteer work today.
Nice park, far away from people and cars.Downside - No playground and need watch kids carefully, because some places very close to water and no barriers, no gates.Otherwise quite nice place.
This is a place with Epic view and Soul. You may feel hidden and relaxed in here without city’s feel.You may be able to see the whole New York Habor and the Manhattan Skyline in this park.Also, this park re-built after the Sandy Hurricanes Attack, and you still able to see the debris.
First time there for Playoff soccer. The girls team from The Academy of American Studies (Long Island City) beat the team from Prospect Heights Campus. The score was 6-1. Ooooch.
Relatively new park. Views of lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. Two large, modern athletic fields, well configured for soccer, with artificial turf. Modern restrooms. Overall the park is well maintained. It has a parking lot which is a big plus. For parents, one minus is the lack of playground equipment. There is a stone pier to walk out on and take in the views but be careful with small children as there is no fencing.
Hidden gem. Very quiet, beautiful views. Great for softball, walking
Lovely view, quiet ambiance!!
Such amazing views, a little bit of nature a little bit of urban its a great place.
Amazing tranquil place. Beat place to go with family or on your own
Great park by the water with sweeping views of the NYC skyline. The park is perfect for a short 2mile run or to play baseball, soccer, or kickball. This parks also as a bike path with exits on both sides of the park so also great if you are just riding by. Be sure to catch the sunset while sitting on the rocks by the water.
Great place to escape from the city wi5y awesome view if u can ignore the abandon buildings on one side
A hidden gem in Brooklyn.It is relatively quiet since it is hard to access and in an industrial area. The views are incredible and as wide as the Bayonne Bridge all the way to lower Manhattan, including a clear view of the Statue of Liberty.Please leave it for me and don’t go there!
This is such a beautiful place to be
Weird and great. Panoramic views of harbor, Statue of Liberty, industrial decay.
Fun place to visit great views
Nice park overlooking the water.Pretty hard to find.There are very clean bathrooms.Worth a visit if you are in the area and want something quiet.
Went there for the first time, great! I can see a lot of ducks. The place is big and clean. It is a good place for walking, chatting and exercising.
Relaxing hidden park
If you want some solitary tranquility this is it. An undiscovered gem you can enjoy and have all to yourself. Bike here because its not easily accessible by public transportation, and its worth it.
I like this place, its quiet, empty, and the scenery is pleasant
This is a very small park but with amazing views. Walk on decks above water, downtown Manhattan across. You can walk the whole park within 30min or less. There is also a baseball/soccer field. Not that crowed but I can see it becoming very crowded soon as this is a new park.
Gorgeous place to walk and relax!kids friendlyworth to come before sunset!
Park is nice. Well hidden from everyone. Parking is lacking and access to the park could be much better
I love to run and skate here its dope and you can catch the mini water cab here
I dont even want to tell anybody about this.. its such a hidden gem for a walk along the water or just to sit down and look at the ships coming and going. Great addition to the neighborhood and will be even better once all the parks are connected.
Nice quiet park in Sunset Park with a beautiful views. Its a gem of the neighborhood. You can see across to Staten Island, Bayonne, Jersey City, the statue of liberty, and of course the Manhattan skyline. Great place to end a run or just take a relaxing walk.
Meh. Super underwhelming. Nothing really interesting, just a lot of wasted potential. A handful of cool buildings, a few piers/jettys, a short walkway through a tiny nature hill, and some sport fields (which are probably great if you want to play something/ arrange a game. But noth the kids and i were pretty unimpressed.
Beautiful park, off the water, Stunning scenery, grass, field, benches, bike lane... usually not to busy
Beautiful place.Romantic and calm atmosphere.Values Selection of thing to do..Its a must to go there to catch your breath.
Its an amaizing place to see the city and the liberty statue. You can get beautiful pictures of them.
Great park to come to enjoy the outdoors. Amenities and athletic fields with a gorgeous view of the city.
It was good the view is like a something out of a post card
Nice for jogging/walking.Nice view of the statue of liberty 🗽 and the city..
I only just recently discovered Bush Terminal Piers Park on a recent walk on the waterfront and was pleasantly surprised to discover a green oasis in such an industrial area. There are clean public restrooms, bike and pedestrian lanes in addition to great viewpoints to admire the NYC skyline. If youre a baseball or soccer fan, check out the fields for both pick-up and organized games.
A beautiful spot for relax
Nice soccer field. Clean bathrooms. Not crowded. Nice family park
Are you sure this is a park? Very boring, not recommended. Its dead from the sun, and there is no place to rest in the shade.
Great relaxing park with beautiful Manhattan skyline view. A few blocks away from Surnrise Mart Japan Village. It is a great place to talk a way after the meal.
Brand New Park. Has free Parking. New benches to watch the Beautiful Sunset Views.
Splendid location, helps to forget you are in NYC until you look north
Great place to visit.
Need more benchesVery niceNeeds a little TLC in regards to weedsVery well usedBathrooms nice and clean
Very relaxing place
Bush Terminal Piers Park makes up for its lack of amenities with a unique perspective of Manhattan. This park is not much more than a walking path and a small nature reserve for some birds. The view from the park is really great, since at this angle the city is on a diagonal so you can see both One World Trade Center and The Empire State Building, they appear to be right next to each other actually.
Great place for a relaxing afternoon. Local parties may or may not easily get off of the fields despite city permits authorizing use
Wonderful new park in Sunset Park. They are starting to develop the waterfront area here into a greenway and common park space. Pretty good job so far. Large soccer fields and a long waterway walkway. They have a great long pier as well that stretches out to the water which provides great views of the Statue of Liberty and Lower Manhattan. The greenspace is well manicured with lovely flowers and trees. Towards the soccer fields youll find some grassy areas for relaxing or a picnic and a bathrooms and water fountain area. Parking is scarce right now as its a small lot. Great place for kite flying as youll find some of the winds coming up from the Bay and large open areas. Theres also a bikeway as well. Also a estuary and protected wildlife section. Plenty of ducks, egrits, and wildlife to look at.
Awesome, out of the way park. They built a really cool tidal flat you can walk down to.
Amazing new park I just discovered, a real gem. Beautiful views of Manhattan and the rest of the bay. A nice quiet spot to chill out.
I have a good time being in this park because it brings peace the people are nice and friendly and the park is beautiful.just now exploring and finding out different things about the park.i love it.one of my favorite so far.
Great place to sit and relax. Perhaps bring a picnic. Family oriented. One can watch the ships come and go.
Nice park for a leisurely stroll, great view of Manhattan. This park also has a parking lot. The grounds are maintained and the restrooms are clean.
Still under development. small space but nice. opening and closing time not consistent. the protected natural area has a lot of garbage including beer cans.
Nothing but a pier, fishermen, and crabbers and all going home empty - probably a good thing
Great place to take pictures. The places to sit are limited but nice. The pier is the main focus
Went to this place with my girl and sister and friend, wanted to end the day by walking down the rocks that lead into the ocean and end it on a good note then some African American guy jogged past us and said is there a problem here?! Which then I stared at him not knowing who he was talking to nor why he even said that so then we ignored him and stood there to watch the sun which was a beautiful view then literally 20 seconds later he comes back and says did you not here me because I can just leave you here and lock the gates and call the cops for trespassing! Which got me upset so I said why are you acting so rude this is the first time we are hearing you say this like we literally just got here then my friend said we are leaving rn so nothing to worry about then this guy then said you arent leaving you are just standing there! Which got me and my friend very upset and we went back and forth with the dude and so he showed us his little leaf on the left upper side of his black jacket and was like you see this, I work here so its my job to tell you to get out! Also I forgot to mentioned this guy was tall and standing in front of the exit where we were supposed to leave but he was backing up while yelling at us so after he yelled and ruined our day my buddy told him all of that was unnecessary and that we were walking right at the moment so he shouldnt be still going and its done so then this guy then gets out of his car and walks towards us like hes expecting a fight so hes like walking aggressively and he says It is nessesary so you can leave or get called on for tresspassing! So my friend told him to drop it and he jumped in his little car and drove through the crowd of people leaving through the gate and closed the first gate and then closed one of the doors on the second gate while we and other families young and old were still trying to leave which was very ridiculous, I understand if you are having a bad day and want to get home but I know at any job you dont dare speak to the people that way no matter what..I hope you guys read this and work on that and talk to the person idk if you guys have a schedule of who works what days but Ill still give the date of when this happen so you can do something if you care at all for what people think of the park...beautiful view and would have been the perfect day but that just squashed it. It all happened April 6th 2019.
I love this place by the water🥰
I have to say... Is breath taking !!! Is as if natures takes over your soul. Relaxing you in such a way that nothing else can. My fiancé & truly reconnect it !!! Definitely will be my favorite spot 💞
The trickiest park to Enter - but you get rewarded with clean new bathrooms, amazing view of the Upper NY Harbor with Statue of Liberty and 2 soccer fields, and a pier.
Nice park but no playground, rude staff, and clean restrooms.
A fun waterfront park in Brooklyn - it looks pretty sketchy at the entrance, but venture in and enjoy the great waterfront views.
Out of the way but beautiful and wild in an unusual way in NYC. Turf fields were excellent for field day. Small parking lot exists but is tricky to find. Entrance is at 43rd Street and 1st Ave.
Beautiful park with a spectacular view of the city and the Statue of Liberty. Definitely worth the bike ride.
Calming environment love it
It has potential. There are man-made stone piers, turf soccer and baseball fields, and paths for running, walking, and cycling. On the other hand, theres a feeling of incompleteness; as if the construction and development had stopped.
Nice place to escape to for a read or a stroll along the water front. Inconvenient, even dangerous, entrance on 43rd street with a ton of truck traffic and no street signal or stop sign.
The entrance is at 43rd and 1st, not the location Kenneth Lei reported two blocks away. Once youre there, you cant miss it--follow the bike path all the way in!This park feels very new. Theyre still seeding grass, have yet to add all their lamp posts, and only really have seating by the ballfields.Oh, and theyre serious about the whole keep off the rocks thing--even if rocks are the only place to sit by the water.
Peaceful and Clean. Not crowded. Great for working out and spending quality time with family and friends.
Great place, usually quiet, not many people, hidden gem for now until the neighborhood becomes more residential over time, pristine soccer fields, great views of New York harbor
The place has several old buildings that are partially used or abandoned. Development is in progress for new use of some buildings. Occupied buildings have no access or limited and empty buildings no entry or fenced off.
Nice and calm place to enjoy with family and friends!
Very nice place for family and friends, a little hard find,has epic views of the city & more.
Sweet for reading, the view, family memories.
To find inner peace.
Great park for picnic, only thing is that there was a rat roaming the area where we were, thats wen we packed up n left😒😔
Beautiful park.
Cool venue for shows with a lot of space. Had a great time at a beer festival here. Downsides: portapotty bathrooms and not enough food.
Its so beautiful place
Nice Park to Walk, bike and play ballPark needs major repairs, part of the pathway is heavily damaged
Beautiful. Nature. No childrens park. Biking lane and walk area. Ball area. Small and relaxing.
Really nice and secluded park! Great views of the water.
The correct entrance for the park is by 41st 1st ave. Ignore the current goggle map location.Edit: There’s now a new entrance by 51st street now. Feel free to use either entrance ways.
New, modest waterfront greenspace in Brooklyn; mostly done but still under construction in late 2016. Very nice views to Manhattan, Statue of Liberty, Staten Island and NJ.
I am lucky to find this good place. so quiet. fresh air.
Nice small quite park with a beautiful viewof the city.
Really nice park. Hidden behind old buildings, which is good because it doesnt get crowded.
A great place to spend time with your family. Enjoy a breeze, and great place to take picks. JUST DONT GO IN THE WATER OR ON THE ROCKS
Still pretty undiscovered. Nice facilities. I love the jetties with no barriers. And some great birdwatching in the tidal pools.
Im m so happy that they understand that putting parking meters was a stupid idea and finally they removed them 👍good for that
Very very nice!!! Very nice!!! I just hope it doesnt become popular. Also an entrance/exit on the other side would be nice. Around the 50s.
Amazing view of Manhaten
Great for hosting soccer matches and baseball games. Also some very beautiful scenery.
Nice tiny park with a great view of downtown Manhattan
What a nice quiet down low park. In the middle of an industrial area. Its beautiful . Right across from the city.
Wow! This is my first time here for my sons soccer practice!! What a nice place, love the water and views😍
Nice quiet place, beautiful view! However, I wish there was a playground for kids.
Nice place to hang..bike paths are nice (but get crowded on weekends)
Spectacular views are the main feature here. Quiet, serene park. But very little sun cover.
Very nice place to visit relaxing fun place
Nice BIG well manicured facility.Small hard to find parking area.Not an area park.Underutilized.
This park is closed after sunset
This is a hidden gem. It is a great, brand new park with a lot of natural space and an amazing view because it is right on the water.
Beautiful place built on sunset parks area(Nice to play football!
Bike path has been expanded. A nice place for cyclists to stop by as part of a trip
Beautiful view of Manhattan Staten Island and New Jersey or just rocks to sit on benches and picnic areas
Beautiful view
I do love this place its beautiful and peaceful
Lovely park. Never busy
This park is one of Brooklyns hidden gems. Very beautiful views along the water looking towards New York Harbor.
Beautiful view. Quiet. Good place for school sporting events.
Nice place to play and walk. View is perfect
Needs a play ground for smaller kids at least some swings
Nice view of the city, awesome renovation (still in progress) done to the place
AMAZING place to walk around and spend time with the family. Wonderful time there :-)
The sunset is amazing from here.
Narrow paths and walkways; loud kids with no masks; no social distancing. Maybe in 2022!
A calm spot between Brooklyn and the bay, a perfect destination for a Saturday afternoon walk. I take this walk as often as possible.
Nice walk way and bike lane with a nice view of the waterWith a nice large parking lot
Great place if you run like I do Awesome view of Manhattan and Statue of liberty
Sunset is gorgeous.
Amazing views and very clean, but closes way to early
I love this park because its clean well kept and close to my house..
Beautiful views across the water along the entire park. Plenty of seating.
Excellent views of NY Bay and lower Manhattan, generally not crowded.
Be careful in the afternoon guys playing near or in the soccer field smoking weed . Other then that its a nice little place to walk
It is a cool and calm park; not usually crowded.
Interesting views, good for walking and biking. Convenient parking and restrooms. Athletic fields and seating.
Perfect for a Sunday Afternoon,Cant wait to go during the evening.🥰
Needs more parking! small park, ok views of Manhattan. dont make a trip if you dont have to
Love this park nice soccer fields and love the water front one of Brooklyn hidden jewels
New park well maintained. Great views. Nice ball fields
Amazing spot.
A maze...LOVE IT WAS SO CUTE AND VERY HAPPY TO HEAR THE WIND WAVE
Great outdoor place for bike riding and picnicking.
Awesome park. Great for walking and taking pics.
I love the piers and love being near the water. Amazingly calms me.
A great park tuck away in sunset park. Plus the view of the city is amazing:
My fav to go hidden South BK gem. That place has a soul and what a view.
Certainly not built out like other waterfront parks, but the Bush Terminal Pier is a peaceful walk by the water, hidden by derelict warehouses.
The cleanest park in NYC.

2022-02-27Nice quiet would be better if they added a dog park lots of people walk there dog around there & we dont have any where to let the dogs play. So much open space that could be turn into a dog park. Luckily the dogs listen & no1 was round passing with bikes

2021-11-15Nice place to visit but needs to fixed up on some places, like the road, park and security needs an uplift. Free parking lot. Views of lower Manhattan, governors island and new Jersey. Bike lane inside the park. Soccor and baseball field. Hidden hiking trail along the water. Enjoy the views! 🙂

2022-06-28Nice but a lot of dog droppings.Update was much cleaner!
Review №4
2022-05-19The view and scenery is very nice, especially with it being by the shore side, and there are some great recreational areas and really nice bathrooms, but unless you bring you own equipment or toys, theres not much to do besides enjoy the nature and serenity, which is amazing, especially for all the people that like to just get that breath of fresh air.
Review №5
2020-09-12Nice park tucked in an otherwise industrial area with two large turf field for soccer and rec sports. I say usually plenty of space for people to do their thing but the large group soccer tend to monopolize so have to watch out for the ball and no consideration of others especially in the evening. The park has a nice view of the city, NJ and the Statue of Liberty.

2018-05-06Nice little recreational area thats very much in the cut. A lot of people may not know about it yet, so hopefully when word gets out, it stays nice and clean. This place boasts a fantastic view of lower Manhattan as well.

2022-06-14A hidden gem, a nice park with soccer fields, baseball fields and green space. great views of the city!
