A large size playground for kids of all ages. It does not have a fence around the playground to keep it separate from the BBQ’s and picnic tables so it can get tricky keeping an eye on your children.
During peak hours the parking lot can get up to a 15 mins+ wait times or even blocked from entering.
There are public restrooms which is always a nice welcome with kids. An ice-cream truck is usually stationed to provide treats(on the expensive side).
We go to this playground at least once a month and best times are before 10:30 or after 4:00 as far as parking goes.
A word of caution when it gets busy some older kids are not quite as friendly going onto the large slide and will shove their way through. Our children have experienced this several times on multiple occasions, unfortunately. Other than that it is a wonderful playground and how can any parent not soak in the views of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Verrazano Bridge, Ellis Island, and the Statue of Liberty...

Read moreFun interactive playground, lots of areas to climb, slide, for various ages. Obstacles courses as well. it is a great playground! I suggest avoiding the playground when it is too hot because there is no where for kids to cool off (like a splash pad). The parking lot is right across so be sure to input 535 freedom way address to arrive there. Otherwise it is a bit of a walk. The reason I removed one star is because there can be rowdy teens sometimes that crowd up the tallest slide and yes they speak foul language or set a bad example; hiding up there to kiss or bully the little kids so be careful and keep an eye on your kid(s). Other than that it is a good destination. If you go to the liberty science center and your kid is still energetic it is a good next...
