Little Island: The Titanic Survivor Landing Spot 🌊

Everyone knows Little Island as a popular Instagrammable spot, but how many people are aware of the story behind it? 🌊 This is the place where, after the Titanic sank, women and children who escaped in lifeboats were reborn and set foot on land again. The Pier 55 and the rusty old dock are still there. The Little Island park was built by the families of the famous victims, who are part of New York's old money families. 🌊 The designer of this park is also the creator of another landmark in the West Village—the Big Pinecone. 🌳 From Little Island, you can see the New World Trade Center and the Statue of Liberty in the distance. 🌟 🌊 #NewYorkExploration #LittleIsland #BigPinecone #Titanic #Rebirth 🌅
