Hunter's Point South Park Playground

Playground

👍👍 This playground is not big, yet probably the only one in NYC that has skyline view AND cherry blossom when in season. The okay structures are inclusive and can entertain kids at different ages and agility level. There are also sidewalks, fields, and dog park in the park and restaurants nearby so it'...

Regatta Playground

Playground

👍👍 This was the original playground for kids which we didn't see before such a rock climbing in drums for instruments for kids to play in bang around. There are also many swings and the view of the Lake and woods was a very nice touch. There were also many picnic areas with many picnic tables. Social d...

Watsessing Park Playground

Playground

👍👍 Awesome new playground only open for a couple of weeks. There is a small off street parking lot, but also plenty of on street metered parking. A word of warning. The park next door can be a bit sketchy. There were 3 police squad cars there on our first visit and they had a man in handcuffs. Still, w...

Overpeck Park Playground

Playground

🫤 Drove here specifically for the large spider web and trampoline equipment, which is closed :/ The rest of the playground is OK, standard slides, ramps and swings. Nice turf field and paved walkway around the little pond. Just really disappointing that the main attraction for this playground is close...

Water Lab

Votee Park Playground

Playground

👍👍 Great park for all ages. There’s so much to do that the kids never get bored. There’s a little rock climbing wall and other climbers that are good at developing hand-eye coordination. It’s a good size park where there’s plenty to do and kids don’t have to take turns as often because there’s enough f...

Newtown Barge Playground

Playground

👍👍 Such a cute little park and waterfront promenade area! We're all in Quarantine now, but plenty of dogs out and a modest group of people enjoying the weather today. We tried to stay 6ft away from everyone. The dogs were having a party. Nice grass area, it's clean, and had a great view of NYC to the w...

Hamilton Park Playground

Playground

👍 Hamilton Park playground was gut renovated just a few years ago. The playground itself is fantastic: swings, slides, monkey bars, picnic tables, you name it. Main issue: it gets super crowded around 2:30 pm, when neighborhood schools release the kids, and it stays crowded until about 6ish pm, 7ish,...
