Best kept secret in Greenpoint. Lots of open spaces, mature trees and walking paths. Plenty of benches to relax. Weekend farmers market and so much more. Immediate street relief!
Really quiet and relaxing park. Very dog friendly with a medium-size dog run, and you can take your dog on the grassy areas. Great park for quiet picnics.
Lovely local park! Adore the HUGE old trees and gorgeous bronze angel statue in honor of veterans. A perfect visit on a weekend. Stop at the nearby shops and cafés, then stroll through the park. Bring your friendly pup- they have a clean dog run here, too. Enjoy :)
Nice park but needs regular tree pruning and lawn re-seeding. Fallen branches and tree limbs are left on the ground for weeks on end. Dog run needs wood chips. A little more TLC from NY Parks dept is definitely needed here! Also, more people need to pick up litter (besides me and the few parks employees they have).
Love this park! Lots of kids but big open space so they are not too clustered. My son leaned how to ride a bike here. Nice playground.
This is a really nice clean park.Very quiet family friendly. There’s a playground in a lot of space to walk it’s a beautiful neighborhood.
Too many rats. The garbage and sanitary staff here needs to step in up.....especially by the entrance on Monitor street. Nothing can be done about the excessive squirrel population but those nice and rats are OUT OF CONTROL.
This park is amazing. Particularly good in the summer. Great old trees. Great water features. Has a Sunday’s farmers market with limited but delicious options. Popsicle stand is always nice.
Best park around! Great farmers market on Sundays. Great for a walk, run, jog, jaunt, stroll, roll, lay, lie, hop, skip or jump.
A lovely, little Park in a part of Brooklyn that I wasnt so familiar with. Definitely worth a visit in the warm weather.
McGolrick park is a great park, having its own dog run, and even a farmers market every Sunday! Highly reccomended 🌳🌳
Beautiful landscape & trees. Felt an intimacy not available in many parks. Historical paviliion interesting with Sunday vendors a delight.
Beautiful park with rounded walks ways and tall trees. A great spot for a picnic under the shade. The maritime monument is fun to walk around. Usually quite with just locals enjoying nature. There is a dog pen and play grounds for kids. Must check out variety coffee for whatever caffinated needs!
Great park! Subpar management. No notice to construction.
Its a pretty nice quiet park that is not too dirty. Its use has grown since covid but it remains nice. Theres a good sized dog run and many trees to sit under.
This park has an average 4.5 rating? Whats wrong with you people?? This the neighborhood I used to live in many many years ago growing up. It looks exactly the same as it did 20 years ago. Nothing has changed. Its very dear to me but Im here to put in some realism. This park needs help. 20 years ago nobody wanted to live here.
A great lil park Oasis nestled in the quiet neighborhoods of greenpoint. They have movie nights too;)
Greeny, relaxing park, with a large playground for kids
Nice quiet park good place to relax and read.
Great place to walk pups, doesnt get too crowded usually and theres a farmers market some days!
I love this park.. super shady with big trees all around.Renovated playground for the kids. Big open space for walking.
I love this park! So romantic, pretty, with an elegant building in the middle & fluffy grass, great tree shade, movie projections in the summer. Also a great area for the smaller children just renovated. The dog area is also well cared for. A nice way to give yourself a break and remember to smell the flowers. A great place to organize a small gathering in the summer!
Lots of big trees for shade and benches to sit on. The park is full of children playing & enjoying the equipment and space.
Great family park...has bathrooms n great kiddie park...perfect 4 a bday party.
Individually I love 🏃♂️ about an hour around the parameter of this park that is approximately 3/4 of a mile with 1 lap. No place to do additional exercises such as pull up or dips. Push-n-sit ups you do anytime. Also plentiful grass to lay out for some R&R.
Victorian era park with large tree lined paths, benches, a portico, and flowers surrounded by apartment buildings. This park is not designed for sports such as soccer or baseball like some other neighborhood parks -- its more for sitting and strolling, though it also offers a dog park, newly renovated playground, and public bathroom, and there is a greenmarket every Sunday Spring through Fall. If you visit, bring some seeds and nuts for the pigeons and squirrels!
Nice park since it has wood chips on the ground rather than gravel. Has a large, long side and a smaller side sectioned off for not friendly dogs. There’s a couple of picnic tables but no trash cans or bags distributed in the park.
Hidden gem in Greenpoint. Most people think of McCarren Park when they think of Greenpoint and it certainly is a great park but hidden away just north of there is McGorlick Park, a small more secluded tree lined park. Just a great spot to be out doors and relax maybe do yoga, read a book or just sit under a tree. Dont expect skate parks and running tracks youll have to go to McCarren Park for that but if you want to avoid the crowds and noise those things bring then this is the park for you.
Took a walk through the park this morning with my son, and visited the newly renovated playground which looks very nice. It is separated one side for toddlers and preschoolers and the other side for older children. Theres even a sprinkler on both sides, for when the weather gets warm, they can have the opportunity to cool off. I also noticed that they added more picnic tables.
This park is one of my new favorites in New York. It’s well kept and neat but has a real natural vibe with scruffy grass and lots of trees, birds and squirrels. Great place for kids but lots of quiet nooks to relax in too. Dogwoods and hydrangeas blooming and this is love to me!
Great local park, safe and clean. Small playground for the kids and lots of grass to have a picnic. Bathrooms are usually not super clean, but what can you really expect from a public restroom in a park?
Great park in the Greenpoint neighborhood. Lots of big trees providing ample shade, a cute farmers market, activities for kids, and public restrooms.
Very family and kids friendly park, if ya wanna spend the day or a few hours there it is the spot. There is also a dog area, nice hood, deli, rest, supermarket, churches. Nice area, close to the BQE, Autozone, Mc Ds, Gas station on McGuiness Boulevard, oh yeah williamsburg, Bushwick, there are two other parks with skate rinks there also. These days with the internet one can search for places and P.O.Is.
Beautiful park with beautiful old oak trees that change colors in the fall. It has a great dog park and a recently rebuilt childrens playground, one section for small kids and one for older kids. The are slides, swings and ladders to play on. There is a farmers market on the weekends and a beautiful center area with arches and a statue
One time I saw a person kicking leaves in the air for their dog to jump at and it made my whole fall.Great park. I never go specifically for the farmers market (this is not my neighborhood park, and there isnt anything so interesting as to warrant an inter-borough trip), but I like when the pickle stand is there.
Great park. The park is about four square block in size. The park has a decent dog walk, childrens playground and a nice farmers market on Saturday. Considering the resources that are allocated it (I imagine its on the low side), Id say that the park is taken care of quite well. I would have given the park five stars but held back due to the drunkards that conjugate and smoke adjacent to the playground.
Playground is big but outdated. Would be nice to see new playground equipment added. Old, tall trees are fantastic however. Great shade for hot summer days in the park. Nice grass areas for babies n blankets. A farmers market was going on the day we visited. Nice touch. Water spray feature was pretty bad. If they update that, then this park gets four stars for sure. An A+ for trees and history, C for playground.
Great park, although it’s under construction at the moment. Great dog park for vaccinated and trained adult dogs, if you bring a puppy the regulars will tell you to leave until it’s trained. That’s not a bad thing, as a puppy owner, it’s a great thing. The benches are clean and the trails are kept clean by the parks department.
Love the low key, family friendly atmosphere of this park. Large, beautiful trees and beautiful sculptures adorn the pathway. There is also a decent dog park - though there is no separation by dog size like in McCarren.Good for quiet time.
Ive lived in the area all my life this was my park as a kid. Lots of area to walk run skate bike etc etc. They have a big playground for the kids with swings slides and a sprinkler in the summer. Lots of grass areas to suntan or have a picnic if thats your thing. The park is clean and well kept.
Nice neighborhood park.Locals call it Winthrop parkNot as many midwest hipster douches here as at other area parks which makes it nice
McGolrick was recently renovated. Is great for both younger and older kids, as there are two sides to The park is lush with beautiful oak trees and has gorgeous picnic areas. Plenty of room for ball kicking and game of kickball
Great place to have a get together they have picnic tables and a working restroom unlike McCarren park
Amazing local park, not too crowded like McCarran. Bathroom could use an update
Awesome place. Love to work from here.
Beautiful little park. Much nicer and quieter than its noisy neighbor McCarren. Fewer unleashed dogs. Farmers market on Sundays. Brand new playground with areas for all ages.
Pretty big park with nice renovated playground. One side for little kids and other for bigger ones. Play space for dogs. Patrolled by police. Space for the kids to run around and it is also good space to do summer little party.
Generally my opinion of the Msgr McGolrick Park is very good. I grew up across from the Park and have enjoyed it for almost 70 years. My exceptions to this would be the following. There is too many Adults that Sleep and Drink in the Park. Leaving behind temporary beding of all sorts. This also includes bodily waste and toilet paper. Look in the higher bushes to find the offenders. They also leave behind all their emptie containers, many of which are glass Whiskey bottles - most of which they break and leave VERY SHARP GLASS all over especially in the grassy areas where children and animals walk. My Dog has been cut more than once from this. Garbage pickup should be more often especially on weekends. People use the Park and think their parents work at the Park and will clean up after their poor cleanliness habits. Please pick up after yourself and your little party. Too many people sleeping in Benches that should be used for sitting - again too much drinking in the Park. Much of this is starting to cause a health hazzard, as you can see by the RAT HOLES by the Dog walk on the corner of Driggs and Russell. On another topic who is the parents, guardians or day care person that is allowing the child or children to continue to DIG ALL THE HOLES all around the Park. I have tripped a few times in the night time while walking my dog. Additionally, would people stop putting household Garbage in the Park for pickup. Who are you hiding from, use the garbage bins in your building. Stop the Children and their Adults from playing in and removing the rocks-boulders from the area where the rock feature is. There is a fence around it for a reason - YOUR SUPPOSED TO STAY OUT OF THAT AREA. I could go on, but tired of typing. Enough for now but start with these small changes. BB
Great weather yesterday and we brought the dogs to the park. Lots of friendly people .. and dogs... to interact with. The year round farm venders were on hand. I picked upsome really fresh kale, potatoes, spinach, carrots... blue ones too. Carlos was there selling his families Columbian coffee, nice organic cinnamon buns, two different cheeses, and a bottle of bourbon from upstate. All set for the end of winter chill.....
Family friendly and dog friendly park.
Its our favorite little park in BK. The recently renovated parts of it. Seems to have helped with the mosquito problem. Nice farmers market on Sundays too!
They just installed a nice new playground, with lots of swings and jungle gym type equipment. There are bathrooms but pretty dirty like an average public bathroom. Beautiful Central monument, but no designated sports areas. There are also a few bums who hang out on the benches on the outskirts.
I went to this park for my entire childhood. I met many polish children that I played tag with. I had a great time here as a kid, although the playground was a bit ugly. It has gotten a lot nicer in the park in recent years. They actually planted flowers instead of bushes.
The BEST park in the neighborhood. Very quite and cozy vibe where I just want to sit and read books!
Best park in Brooklyn. Quiet, serene vibe, a great meeting spot to catch up with friends over coffee. Family friendly with a great play area and loads of room for picnics, parties and perambulating.
Nice park with a lot of benches
Better than that other, larger park that is oh so nearby. It has a more neighborly and less pretentious crowd and is shaded by huge London pine trees.
Great Greenpoint ParkViews walks track dog run nice well rounded NYC Park and all the perks
Great facilities and space for all ages. Plenty of shade and a sunny spot can be found if that floats your boat.
Our favorite Park , but - RESTROOMS ARE DISGUSTING!!!
I was there for the Dog Halloween Costume and Parade this afternoon and I had I really nice time! The park offers a nice structure and the event was well organized.There are places for children to play and benches available to rest.
Love the dog park vibe here, much more relaxed feeling than McCarren, a truly beautiful park particularly when everythings in bloom. Only drawback is theres a lot of construction right now and Im not sure how long its going on, so no playground at the moment and not as gorgeous as it will be once construction is completed
Only been once, to utilize their dog run. Very nice, dog watering bowls readily available and the run is well maintained. Just a little too far from my Flatbush home. The city can do a better job distributing dog runs in Brooklyn. Were only the citys most populous borough.
I love this park. Its got a nice layout for finding a quiet spot or a bustling area, a good Sunday market, and a nice open space as well as a few nice statues watching over the park. Looking forward to the playground reopening!
The playground renovation took FOREVER but it was worth it!!! Theres something for every kid to enjoy!! Just remember to bring bug spray - the mosquitoes are abundant!
Amazing park for kids, the overground is big and they have a farmers market on weekends. Quiet and safe place for kids to play.
It is a lovely place. Dog walks. Grass. Even on a drizzly day, you can find a spot to dry off and sit that is not under a tree.
I love when the maps app asks me to review a park. Trees are green yo I love it!*also bring your compost on Sunday to the farmers market
Nice park to relax and unwind. Also very grateful that there is a public bathroom, which I needed to use last time I was in the area!
I was born and raised on Russell Street in 1950. We played Sports,tag, ringaleveo, sundown,among others. Great memories of that Park. That wasbefore the Internet need l say more?
This tends to be more quiet than McCarren Park...This is likely due to the fact that doesnt have a barbecue side out or in a pool right next to it. However it does have a really lovely dog park!
Very Beautiful, Tranquil, Relaxing Scenery. Furthermore, Quite Semi-Expansive Mentally with the Architecture of the Column, Pillar Section and Versatility of your Generic Park Essentials. A Pleasant Experience Nonetheless.
I grew up on Russell Street right across the street from this park. my juvenile delinquent friends and I used to congregate in this park When We Were Young LOL I met my first love in this park and have lots of great memories. Its been torn up for a while now as they are redoing playgrounds... But its not the same since Greenpoint become gentrified. I often miss the old neighborhood because we knew who everybody was nowadays you dont know who youre sharing this park with. I dont go there anymore unless I go on my lunch hour and enjoy some sun when its warm.
Lovely park to come and sit under a tree and read or visit on a Saturday to shop the farmers market. Many trees and flowers to see blooming in the spring, summer, and fall.
Its clean with the exception of Pigeon droppings on certain areas of the park. The equipments do show much wear and tear, need new coat of paint. Lots of trees in the middle of the park, so that is awesome, lots of shade.
Safe, nice place, dog park etc etc....but the statues here are really odd. And NOT in the must see kinda way. Kinda like NYC had some weird, almost offensive, statues and this place got picked to punish. Also, not sure why NYC cant take better care of the very tiny part of green space they do care for?
This is a lovely little park. i painted the benches in here a year ago with an nyc charity group and my office. we were gruffed at by some of the old men that like to hang out in the park. lots of kids - but its nice to have some nature in your neighborhood! i really appreciate this park, but sometimes the kids are really loud, and the old men are grumpy!
Theres a farmers market every Sunday, and you can buy from Brooklyn rooftop farm guys.Good booze, good food, and good performance sometimes.This is the park you wished to have nearby your house all along.
Nice park. Clean and worth stopping to let my furbaby walk when Im driving through the neighborhood.
Wonderful park! The kids playground is well designed and has a separate area for the babies/toddlers. I love it there👍🏻👍🏿
Bring a blanket as there is very little grass and very few tables. It does have glorious huge trees and space... Open space not full of dbags, unlike other area parks that ryhme with Least Giver Park or Dontkarren Park in williamsburg.
Nice park. Although, it does get very crowded. Also, the bathrooms close way too soon.
Beautiful park. Relatively cool in the summer, many trees. Awesome playground for the little ones.
My neighborhood Oasis. Especially love the variety of large majestic seemingly old tress and newly planted wild native shrubs. A quiet walk at night will reveal both their variety and beauty.
This park is great during the day. The playground is hopping, and the trees are big and beautiful. I used to live across the street however, and it gets shady at night.
Native Greenpointer here! So dang old school as a kid we called this place Winthrop park. Cuz the oldtimers in our day refused to call McGlorick when the name change occurred. Anyways the place was great in the 70s and still cool now. Went back there recently and saw the new generation di great things with the place. Farmers market is a nice touch. Greenpoint aint the working class , Blue collar town it was when I was comin up but (if you can afford it) a great place to live.
It feels undiscovered even when’s crowded. Dogs, pigeons, kids and the casual anti shelter protest.
I grow up across the Street from this Park and most of my time in this park playing hockey, football, & baseball. I have seen the park at its worst and that it was build back up to its full Beauty. if youre interested in seeing what it used to look like see a movie called going out of style with George Burns. Show a old mushroom slide that used to stand there in the park playground.
Very Nice Park,
Its fun here but I dont like how long it takes to rebuild the playground for kids and how theres a lot of teenagers that arent good role models but other than that its a nice enjoyable place and the dogs have fun there too
McGolrick park is the quintessential neighborhood park. Where McCaren and other local parks are overpopulated spaces of grass, McGolrick is six converging paths that lead to a center plaza. There’s not enough room for activities such as kickball but if you want to toss a frisbee or play catch in a picturesque, shaded environment, this is your park.
First time park as park . But , when there are a lot of people - I saw , this place life .
It really a beautiful park with many interesting sites like the male mermaid and the war memorial.
Clean, green and lots of benches all throughout
Super cute park. Well laid out. Great fun. Clean. Can have mosquitoes in the summer.
I loved all the energy and how many people were walking there dogs, it really shows how we could still have a nice day during the pandemic
Beautiful park. Not as sunny as McCarran but also not as crowded. Nice place to run the puppy off leash.
Great park to take a walk and there a farmers market sometimes. Great atomsphere generally if your in the area and need to relax!
Nice old park with huge trees, lots of shade and newly renovated playgrounds. great for chilling with the kids.
A place with public restrooms. Nice park but not very clean🥺
Nice and big with a dog park, a playground, big paths and fields, and a great farmers market on Sundays
Excellent park for little kids! Sunday Farmers market is here
Calm and nice park. Please be careful of the branches that sometimes fall from the high trees and some of them are considerably big.
Great place to relax with plenty of neighborhood activities like ocasional fairs and sidewalk flea markets. Playground for kids as well.
I bring my dog here every week during the summer...she loves it and bonds with her friends and we play fetch. Awesome dog oasis in the big city.
Nice local park with a lot of shade and lawn space. Amazing playground.
This is my favorite park in the area. Theres a nice farmers market in Sundays in the not-winter season, and the trees and benches make it a nice place to sit and relax.
I have been working in the park doing different types of jobs dealing with plants and taking out the weeds, vines,and replacing them with fresh plants and soil mulching the areas that need to be attended by New growth of different types of plants to give it a natural environment for the trees and plants as well as the animals insects.
Clean, well kept, enough people to be active but not too many to be crowded
Best farmer’s market in great park!
One of the best parks in Brooklyn, quiet and shady, very nice statues.
Very nice small park, a great place to stop during my lunch break. Its a lovely difference from the nearby industrial areas!
Very quite place wiith all green and cool. Good for a healthy walk or sit for a peace of mind and body. Plan your daily exercise for healthy life.
They have a farmers market on Sundays 9-4 , lots of great vendors, i love the ☕ girl from pinebroook roasters, great cold brew, awesome ice pops
This park is a hidden gem of N. Brooklyn, unless you live in the area. If youre in Williamsburg/Greenpoint for a day go check out McGolrick after your time at Smorgasborg! Very pretty in the fall.
Súper sketchoid location. Lots of odd noises eminating from within. Yelling sounds around 4AM, check. Should I cut thru the park? Totally up to you. If youre a fan of German horror flics, this is the park for you! Never a dull moment. You can eat a family sized halva and still be stuntin hard here. Hey is that a sheep? I cant really tell, you should try and pet it and get the 411. Why is she drooling?
Great park with peculiar pigeons to watch while you eat a sandwich
My daughter had a great time at the park.
I was only passing through this park when I visited, but the foliage is nice and everything is well maintained. A very pretty public space.
Nice park ,but no playground for kids(under construction).lot of homeless people and dog 💩 everywhere
Really beautiful and pleasant place to spend some time outside. I love the dog park and the weekly green markets.
Great alternative to McCarren in Greenpoint. Cute farmers mkt on Sundays. And a playground w water spouts to the north!
Such a great oasis in our hood.
Under construction but when its not, it has bunch of over bearing hippies feeding the kids non GMO organics or polish parents dressed in overpriced fancy clothing just like their kids, thinking its 6th Ave.
Perfect place to relax with your dog, kids, or friends. Take a blanket & a book and lay out in the sun during the summer - its so dreamy!
This is a beautiful park. Really enjoyed seeing the bronze memorial statue. Beautiful collonade. Im going back when I can spend more time.
Nice little park in Greenpoint with lots of trees and bathrooms
A VERY ACCOMIDATING PARKBECAUSE OF ITS LOCALE .MODERN PLAY AREA FORCHILDREN , AND AN AREACORDONED OFF FOR DOGS .
Nice green area in the Green Point Brooklyn area. The park has dog play and on weekends you may find local musicians jamming
Not bad for a park but always should be on guard
Cool little park with good picnic areas and playgrounds
A lovely oasis
Best under the radar secret neighborhood park in NY
Great park. Bit quieter than McCarren
Beautiful park in Greenpoint, gorgeous trees, farmers market on Sundays, CitiBike station just outside the park. Dont miss it!
My fav park to just chill at. Totally different vibes from McCarren. More families and kids playing and just more relaxing.
Quaint park with a dog run. Market on the weekends. And plenty of benches to sit at and eat a whole pie from Pie Corps to yourself
Nice shady park off the beaten path. Picnic tables, a dog run, a new playground, and a farmers market on weekends.
One of the better parks, small but well designed and nice bit of history.
A piece of heaven in Greenpoint.
Great park! Tons of dogs and great all around atmosphere
Fairly tidy neighborhood park where your adopted shelter dog may relieve itself, also good for watching old polish men.
Such a lovely park with a local vide and a great farmers market on Sundays.
Our favorite dog park, owners there generally mind there pups very well and take good care of the park.
The play areas have been up graded and are lovely. Great speration of the older kids from the younger ones.
Always spending time with my 3childten in that Park 🌳. Lots of trees 👍
Loved the green space to sit and have a small picnic on. Small but has character.
Dirty...clean up the place it is a beautiful beautiful park. Lots of dog poop!!!!! What is wrong with people???
So intimate and charming. There are so many cool Halloween decorations around the place.
Small and cozy green park in the middle of greenpoint. Benches, grass, kids and dogs area, supermarket and variety café nearby.
SHAME ON THE PEOPLE.TOO MANY PEOPLE IN LARGE GROUPS, NO SOCIAL DISTANCING AND MORE THAN HALF NO MASKS.SELFISH AND IGNORANTAFTER SEEING THIS CLOSE THE PARK
Enjoy the outdoor film, Dumbo! Be aware that there are no open restrooms in the evening.
Nice neighborhood park, lots of old trees to provide excellent shading when the temperature spikes into the 90+ degrees
This is a great, clean park with lots of open spaces and areas to relax.
Great place for a family. Clean. Very shaded. Relaxing oasis
I live at the area borned and raised in the area its beautiful in the summer and in Winter .
Food and services great! Portions were plentifulLove those ladys that work there. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great park for kids!
Beautiful park ...lots of shade and not too crowded
Cool small park. Great place to relax.
Beautiful park to walk through, especially in fall and winter seasons
Nice neighborhood park....less Williamsburg-y than Mccarren obviously...which is a positive ;)
We enjoyed time at the playground here with our son.
I love this park. It has an area for everyone to relax and play.
Great park for families and dogs. Gorgeous light.
Oh my gosh those Sycamores! They are so beautiful. And I could ogle all those cute doggies all day!
Why does the bathroom close at 4pm, it’s not like everyone is done peeing
They could mow the grass more often. I feel like the long grass is conducive of mosquito central.
Beautiful little park with a fun Farmers market every Sunday.
Beauty is the word that describes the place.
Nice shaded grass, walkways, a d benches. Two playgrounds and swings.
Great for kids, parents and puppies too! Also space for picnics or reading.
I liked it theirs are framer market on Saturday and Sunday everything is fresh
Amazing place to visit any season
Nice but today bathroom closed at 5:30 pm maybe should be closed at 7pm.
The park just finished construction and when the grass grows this will surely be a 5 star park!
Nice park, big. with a dog run . follow me @Emperorkaioyus
Great trees but like all parks in the area the grass is awful and its dirty
Its nice, especially when its sunny. Very warm park.
Lovely local park surrounded by brownstones and townhouses.
A park with a little something for everyone!
Also a nice place to sit in the shade of many trees. Places to eat shop.
Ok park but needs the trash removed..
Nice and quaint. Quiet place to relax
Beautiful day. Great park
Great small park in Greenpoint. Just renovated.
The sculpture in the middle of the park is worth the visit
Suppose to have fresh market on Sundays. However very few vendors
Dogs off leash before 9am and after 9pm, greenmarket on Sundays from 11-4.

2022-06-12Nice to respite from Brooklyn’s . Great relaxing area . Playground , dog park , picnic tables, arboret, this park covers several things and the monument for Argonne angel.

2022-06-10Nice bit o’ respite from Brooklyn’s rat race and status-olympics. Playground, picnic tables, arboret, this park covers several bases. The park’s denizens are a colorful lot.
Review №3
2021-08-17I grew up in this park and have seen the many renovations and work over the years. Today, it is even better than ever, with a great community, well kept space, farmers market, and events. The fields are always welcoming and full of picnics, kids playing, and dogs with their humans enjoying the dog park. It’s one of the few green spaces in the area. Lots of beautiful old trees, flowers, and general beautiful landscaping. We love to lay on the grass and bird watch and have even heard of a resident skunk. The pavilion in the center of the park allows for some shelter, whether you are getting together with a group or need to get out of the rain. There is a palpable sense of community in this intimate neighborhood gem. Enjoy live music often played by local musicians, take and even enjoy coffee, food, baked goods, and ice cream all surrounding the park.

2022-06-07This park could be absolutely gorgeous with its layout, architecture & huge trees but it is not kept up at all. Bathrooms are horrendous.. filthy and never cleaned.. no soap.. no working hand dryer .. smells like foul urine..Fences are falling off enclosures, the lawns are not manicured.. rotting and dying leaves and dirty everywhere. It’s really a shame as this could be such an astounding place if someone kept it clean.I thought each park had groundskeepers who maintained it but there doesn’t look like there has been any work done on this place for months. It’s absolutely falling apart.Nice area and a really nice crowd of people in this neighborhood but this place is so run down and they could do so so so much with it and clean it up and revamp it.

2022-02-16McGolrick Park is a family and pet friendly park. It is in a quiet part of Greenpoint. It is clean and I always feel safe in this park. It also has nice statues. I love the atmosphere and the views from this lovely neighborhood park.

2022-03-06Very kid friendly but you can also find a quiet spot to read/picnic if you want as well. Lots of dogs around though so if you have an allergy/phobia it’s not the park for you
Review №7
2022-05-17Wonderful farmers market every Sunday. I found especially great produce at the Orchard Hill booth.
Review №8

2022-05-24Gorgeous, quiet, beautifully shaded park. Plenty of outdoor green space and grass to throw down picnic blankets and gather friends. Conveniently located between a number of groceries, so last minute items and beverages are a quick stroll away.

2022-01-13One of the most loveliest and tucked away parks in Brooklyn. great farmers market too!
