“Beautiful, simply Beautiful. Had an awesome view of the statue of Liberty from the park.”

“I was suggested to enjoy heading to Ellis Island and Statue of Liberty from New Jersey leaving from this park instead of Battery Park in Manhattan, however I have to say I found the place very disappointing… A long walk from the train station with nothing around to see if not cars driving by.”
★★★★★Family
“Visited both at night and again during the day. The nighttime view is especially impressive. Just note that the park closes at 10:00 pm.”
★★★★★Family
“This Park offers stunning views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and the Manhattan skyline. It's spacious, peaceful, and perfect for walks, picnics, or catching a ferry - an ideal escape from the city's hustle.”
