Rising from the Hudson River, Little Island, a new, 2.4 acre free public park, was opened to the public on May 21st, 2021, providing New Yorkers and visitors from around the world with a unique green space in New York City. This park provides peaceful spaces to explore, new venues for live performances and cultural events, and unique points to view the surrounding area.
In 2013, Barry Diller, an American businessman Planned in partnership with the Hudson River Park Trust, embarked on the unique opportunity to envision a solution, for the repair and reactivation of Pier 54, which was damaged by Hurricane Sandy. They chose to reimagine an entirely new type of public space for New York, one that would create an extraordinary experience with nature and art. A landscape design was conceived as a leaf floating on water. And this 260 Million dollar Park Floats on the Hudson is a Charmer.
In the following video, I am sharing the full view of the park, and it’s spectacular views of the city and harbor. For information about the park, location, hours, directions, visit the following page: Visit Little Island New York City.
