Great for picnics and group photos. What a gem of a park .
A true community park . Very quite and serene. I would suggest catching the red bus to the park from the tram . It costs 25 cents.
Great views of UES, especially at sunset .
Access to the lighthouse , exterior only, was closed off due to damage from Sandy but is now open again!
Everything!
Lighthouse is off-limits as of Mar 2013 but the restroom on the right side works. Saved me!
Can't go in the lighthouse .
To describe this place in one word: PEACEFUL
Better place to watch the sun rise... Look north east, rather than due easy for better view .
this park is ass
Good spot for mid autumn day
Great place to watch the sun set.
Mysteriously, two asylum patients are credited with building the Blackwell (now Roosevelt) Island Lighthouse--John McCarthy and Thomas Maxey. It is unclear whether either of them even existed! - Untapped Cities
Beautiful little park to take in a great view of the city and get lost in a good book. - Seth Thomas
