A HIDDEN GEM OF MANHATTAN'S WEST SIDE HIGHWAY
A beautiful place to unwind and relax for free.
Pretty cool place with a nice grassy area, water sprays to get cooled off toward the end and a lovely shaded area with trees at the end. Why missing a star? Cause at Pride they turned the water sprays off and baracaded people from going to the shady end of the pier at noon!
Love this pier! Plenty of beautiful impeccably maintained grass to lay down on, picnic or just get in some sun! Plenty of benches and seated areas as well as a beautiful view of south NYC, NJ skyline and the statue of liberty. There is a great food and drink bar right at the start of the pier as well as bathrooms!
Very cool place but extremely busy. But definitely a nice respite on a sunny day. We had a blanket on the lawn and there was a service bar on the wall. Some Spanish dancing in the front and Tom’s of sunbathers out in the pier. A great place for people watching! Have fun!
A nice spot where they have social dancing (salsa, tango, etc) on weekend afternoons. Views of New Jersey. Keep in mind it will be a bit colder on the pier vs. being downtown between the buildings.
I bring my baby here pretty much every day. We watch geese and enjoy the green and the water. There are sometimes people fishing, very calm vibe mostly.
