Pier 1 adds 6 new acres of park including 1,300 feet of promenade along the East River, and 2.5 acres of lawn with sweeping views of the New York harbor, the Manhattan skyline, and the Brooklyn Bridge. A dramatic granite prospect made from the stone salvaged from the Roosevelt Island Bridge cascades from the two lawns to the 30’ wide waterfront promenade and serves as a tiered viewing deck for park visitors. Also included is a small playground with swings, spring rockers, and stainless steel climbing domes for young children. New to the park will be Pier 1’s landscaped lawns. This new green space will create a breathtaking new focal point for park activities. See www.brooklynbridgeparknyc.org for more information.
