Wonderful new park in Sunset Park. They are starting to develop the waterfront area here into a greenway and common park space. Pretty good job so far. Large soccer fields and a long waterway walkway. They have a great long pier as well that stretches out to the water which provides great views of the Statue of Liberty and Lower Manhattan. The greenspace is well manicured with lovely flowers and trees. Towards the soccer fields youll find some grassy areas for relaxing or a picnic and a bathrooms and water fountain area. Parking is scarce right now as its a small lot. Great place for kite flying as youll find some of the winds coming up from the Bay and large open areas. Theres also a bikeway as well. Also a estuary and protected wildlife section. Plenty of ducks, egrits, and wildlife to look at.

Interesting little park. Really nice views of Manhattan from both the park and an old pier. The sustainability aspect of the park is very cool, but honestly there is not that much here. There is a nice big turfed area for soccer fields, a baseball diamond, and some benches. There is a really nice and well kept bathroom. There is no really grassy area to sit out, or really any shade in the summer. Still, a coll little park to take a quick walk through.

Relatively new park. Views of lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty. Two large, modern athletic fields, well configured for soccer, with artificial turf. Modern restrooms. Overall the park is well maintained. It has a parking lot which is a big plus. For parents, one minus is the lack of playground equipment. There is a stone pier to walk out on and take in the views but be careful with small children as there is no fencing.

The entrance is at 43rd and 1st, not the location Kenneth Lei reported two blocks away. Once youre there, you cant miss it--follow the bike path all the way in! This park feels very new. Theyre still seeding grass, have yet to add all their lamp posts, and only really have seating by the ballfields. Oh, and theyre serious about the whole "keep off the rocks" thing--even if rocks are the only place to sit by the water.

Bush Terminal Piers Park makes up for its lack of amenities with a unique perspective of Manhattan. This park is not much more than a walking path and a small nature reserve for some birds. The view from the park is really great, since at this angle the city is on a diagonal so you can see both One World Trade Center and The Empire State Building, they appear to be right next to each other actually.

I only just recently discovered Bush Terminal Piers Park on a recent walk on the waterfront and was pleasantly surprised to discover a green oasis in such an industrial area. There are clean public restrooms, bike and pedestrian lanes in addition to great viewpoints to admire the NYC skyline. If youre a baseball or soccer fan, check out the fields for both pick-up and organized games.

Nice quiet park in Sunset Park with a beautiful views. Its a gem of the neighborhood. You can see across to Staten Island, Bayonne, Jersey City, the statue of liberty, and of course the Manhattan skyline. Great place to end a run or just take a relaxing walk.

Brand new Park - so the bathrooms are clean and well maintained. There are two artificial turf fields but one is off limits because it is rented out and just sits there with nobody allowed to use it. The best part of the park is the view.

This is a really nice waterfront park with a spectacular city view. It has a number of play fields, and some short walking paths in addition to the piers that jut out into the bay, which are absolutely the best feature of the park.

Out of the way but beautiful and wild in an unusual way in NYC. Turf fields were excellent for field day. Small parking lot exists but is tricky to find. Entrance is at 43rd Street and 1st Ave.

Great place, usually quiet, not many people, hidden gem for now until the neighborhood becomes more residential over time, pristine soccer fields, great views of New York harbor

New, modest waterfront greenspace in Brooklyn; mostly done but still under construction in late 2016. Very nice views to Manhattan, Statue of Liberty, Staten Island and NJ.

Bush Terminal is a hidden gem of Sunset Park. New park with nice views. Love how its so clean and have a path that goes a bit out to the ocean. Super awesome.

Still under development. small space but nice. opening and closing time not consistent. the protected natural area has a lot of garbage including beer cans.

Certainly not built out like other waterfront parks, but the Bush Terminal Pier is a peaceful walk by the water, hidden by derelict warehouses.

Very very nice!!! Very nice!!! I just hope it doesnt become popular. Also an entrance/exit on the other side would be nice. Around the 50s.

Cool venue for shows with a lot of space. Had a great time at a beer festival here. Downsides: portapotty bathrooms and not enough food.

This is a hidden gem. It is a great, brand new park with a lot of natural space and an amazing view because it is right on the water.

Still pretty undiscovered. Nice facilities. I love the jetties with no barriers. And some great birdwatching in the tidal pools.

The correct entrance for the park is by 41st 1st ave. Ignore the current goggle map location.

Really nice park. Hidden behind old buildings, which is good because it doesnt get crowded.

Spectacular views are the main feature here. Quiet, serene park. But very little sun cover.
