Wards Island Park — Attraction in New York

The purpose of this review is not to hate or harm this place and the people in charge of taking care of it in any way, shape, or form. That being said, I hope you take this review as an informative review.

Atmosphere: Getting to this island was quite a journey. Perfect for a great walk. The island itself was nice and spacious, with many soccer fields to use, not only for soccer but for other sports as well. However, I don't think there are enough parking spots. So, make sure you get there early if you go there by car. I have seen how crowded it can get when there is a concert. I did not find a kiosk or something similar where I can use at least a bottle of water. So, if you plan to stay there for most of the day, make sure you take something to eat or drink with you. Most importantly, make sure not to leave any garbage behind. I saw garbage lying around, which is just sad to see soda cans, beer cans, etc. As grown-ups, you should have the responsibility to put garbage in its place and set an example for the younger generations.

Accessibility: You can choose between walking, biking, and driving. If you're in Astoria, you can drive, bike, or walk through the Tri-Borough bridge. There are actually thin slides on the stairs of the bridge to make it easy for bikers to move their bikes. Be really cautious when you get the upper point of the bridge, especially with children, because there is no fence. If you are in East Harlem, you can walk and bike through the Ward's Island bridge that is located between...

My son's soccer team practices here as do many other soccer, baseball and lacrosse teams, so it's a busy place. It's also a great place to relax on a weekend if you want to grill or ride bikes. It's right on the water so the ambience is nice. I've taken public transportation to get there (not my favorite way to get there), but it's also accessible by car and there's parking available. I've walked there too over the 103rd bridge- it's a good workout if you're trying to make 10,000 steps! My only complaint is that the bathrooms were locked during peak practice hours. I walked to 2 different locations and both were locked. Maybe it's just due to the pandemic but since all the fields were in use I can't imagine why the bathroom facilities would be locked. Anyway, it's a great place to visit if...
