This park features an elevated walkway with Manhattan skyline views, a sugar factory-themed playground, sand volleyball and bocce courts, water features, and a taco stand. Moreover, this park has a gorgeous view of the Manhattan skyline and Wiliamsburg bridge. Parking is very challenging so it's best to take a public transit. As a first time visitor, I really like this park and its modern design. This park was not built when I was exiled to LA over a decade ago! Overall, I am glad I enjoyed this park and its stunning view. I highly recommend you visit.

Formerly known as East River State Park, it was renamed in 2020 to honor the iconic Black transgender woman, LGBTQ+ civil rights pioneer, and Stonewall uprising veteran. I love the Namesake Tribute that features an arched entryway designed to mimic Marsha P. Johnson's signature floral hair crowns and is inscribed with her famous motto, "Pay it no mind." The park is beautiful, but the view is outstanding. The view offers sweeping, direct views of the East River and the Midtown Manhattan skyline. You can see iconic city architecture across the water, watch boats pass by, and enjoy popular sunset viewing spots along the open waterfront.

Either way, I don't mind because the dogs that come here are usually really sweet and they play well. I haven't had an issue with any of them being overly aggressive. There is a smaller sized dog run and a larger sized dog run: both are open to dogs of all sizes. The larger size dog run has more benches and seating. For some reason, people leave extra balls, toys laying around for neighbours and there are always water bowls. Bring water for your dogs though (this is why it's minus one star) because there's no running water. While we're not super far from McGolrick, which I've heard has a fancier dog run, this does well because the neighbourhood dogs are so friendly!

WNYC Transmitter Park is a scenic waterfront park located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, built on the…read morehistoric site of the former WNYC radio transmission towers. The park offers stunning panoramic views of the Manhattan skyline, a well-maintained large lawn, children's playgrounds, cultivated nature gardens, and a recreational fishing pier. Opened in 2012, it features a meticulously restored Art Deco transmitter building that now serves as a historical landmark, and a pedestrian bridge that gracefully spans over a tidal wetland, connecting different areas of the park. The park serves as a vibrant community hub for recreational activities and public events, actively supported by the volunteer group Friends of WNYC Transmitter Park. Transmitter Park may be small in size, but it is packed with character. It boasts incredible views of Manhattan and is remarkably beautiful. My daughter and I recently visited and found it to be a peaceful, serene space. What I appreciated most was how the park creates a calming atmosphere--sitting at the water's edge, you can enjoy the soothing sound of waves and the refreshing gusts of wind. It's a place I highly recommend for anyone seeking a tranquil outdoor escape.

I learned that this waterfront space was once the site of a radio tower. Because it was early morning, the park was quiet and empty. A few people were walking their dogs on the pier, which overlooks the Manhattan skyline. What caught my eye even more than the city waking up, however, was the large mural against a red brick wall. It shows a woman lying down, plucking dandelion petals. It was whimsical, especially once I noticed the frog beside her. I appreciated discovering this small pocket of the city and enjoyed the moment of peace before my day kicked into high gear.

It's actually not all that nice so I don't get the 4 and 5 star reviews but to each their own. This area was once a ferry landing that served the citizens of Williamsburg before it became part of Brooklyn. it was called the 19th century Grand Street Ferry. It transported goods and passengers across the East River to Manhattan. There is a relic of an old smokestack from a long gone molasses plant that used to be here anchoring the park.

It's utterly gorgeous and it's also located next to Industry and old stuff and it's beautiful. They have rejuvenated the area like crazy, and it is the very definition of gentrification you could say. It's next to the Domino Sugar Factory, and the skyline is dominated by that, and you can also look across to the beautiful Lower Manhattan vista. And of course like others said, get splashed by the toxic (not in a hipster way) East River whenever a boat goes by. I love it and it's one of the best to use but there are so many good ones.
