Fun Fact
The plants around the park cove, put in place by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, include many native coastal species. The plants were intentionally chosen to provide highly diversified feeding and nesting habitats for birds, and to attract pollinators, especially butterflies.

Pier 6

Pier 6 is open! 

Pier 6 Rendering 1Located at the foot of Atlantic Avenue, Pier 6 adds approximately 7 acres of new park, including a 1.6 acre destination playground. The play areas will include a “swing valley” built along the southern edge of the pier featuring long rope swings, a “slide mountain” with two-story high slides that empty into a large sand box with stone animals , a water-play area, climbing structure, and a “boulder mountain.”

Pier 6 cafe renderingA 30’ wide promenade leading onto Pier 6 features views of lower Manhattan and New York Harbor. A park concession building with a  1000-square-foot restaurant and roof top deck, three sand volleyball courts, and a dog run will also be constructed. Plans are underway for a new water taxi dock at Pier 6 that will offer direct service between Brooklyn Bridge Park and Governor’s Island.
