The quick take

Drawn from this listing's ratings, amenities, hours and how it stacks up against other parks in New York.

What works

  • Consistently well reviewed

    4.7 stars held across 68,299 reviews is not a fluke — people keep going back.

  • A genuine local landmark

    68,299 reviews is the kind of number a place only reaches when the whole city knows it.

  • Open every day

    The same hours all week (7:00 AM – 10:00 PM), so there is no schedule to memorise.

  • Works with kids

    Flagged as family-friendly, which usually means room to run and somewhere for the adults to sit.

  • Free parking

    A free lot and free street parking — one less thing to pay for, though paid options sit alongside it.

Worth knowing first

  • Dogs are not permitted

    Leave them at home, or look at the dog parks listed for the same city instead.

  • Popular enough to be busy

    68,299 reviews cuts both ways. Weekend afternoons draw a crowd, so go early or go midweek if you want it quiet.
