Pier 1 adds 6 new acres of park including 1,300 feet of promenade along the East River, and 2.5 acres of lawn with sweeping views of the New York harbor, the Manhattan skyline, and the Brooklyn Bridge. A dramatic granite prospect made from the stone salvaged from the Roosevelt Island Bridge will cascade from the two lawns to the 30’ wide waterfront promenade and will serve as a tiered viewing deck for park visitors. Also included is a small playground with swings, spring rockers, and stainless steel climbing domes for young children. This new green space creates a breathtaking new focal point for park activities.
