Concrete Plant Park

Nice place to sit and relax with family and friends; Not much else you can do besides that. I guess you can go fishing in this green NYC water as I see people do, but I imagine it's more of a catch and release. They've also installed what seems to be a tiny lil bmx track, but don't expect to get much use out of it. It's probably best suited for kids. But in my opinion, the main attraction to this park is to just sit and be. Plenty of benches but there's next to no shade, but the grass is pretty clean and I prefer to sit here. And it's surprisingly quiet here considering it's surround by a highway and 4 train on 3 of 4 sides. Wait, that isn't it. Takes out headphones The surrounding area isn't so loud that it's intrusive. Probably about the same lvl of noise as if you turned your bathroom faucet on to half pressure, max to simulate the passing train.

Overall, I'd say it's a good park to relax in; a nice place to stay for 30 minutes or so after you get out of work. Just don't expect any more out of this place than that, a place to sit.
