Gansevoort Peninsula Park
New York City is about to add yet another bit of cool to the town. The Gansevoort Peninsula Park is sure to be a top attraction in The Big Apple.
Located in Hudson River Park between Gansevoort Street and Little West 12th Street, Gansevoort Peninsula Park will include a sandy beach area with kayak access on the south side; a lawn and seating area north of the beach; a large sports field; a salt marsh with habitat enhancements on the north side, a dog run and on its western side, picnic tables and lounge chairs.
“Gansevoort Peninsula will be a spectacular public space for all New Yorkers, whether they’re enjoying Manhattan’s first public beach, playing on the ballfields or looking out in the salt marsh,” said Madelyn Wils, President & CEO of the Hudson River Park Trust. “As Hudson River Park moves closer to completion, we are excited to be in position to start construction on one of our signature projects this coming spring. Thank you to our funding partner, the City of New York, for its support of what will be the largest single greenspace in Hudson River Park.”
The park is slated to open in Spring 2023.
