About
Gantry Plaza State Park is a 12-acre riverside oasis that boasts spectacular views of the midtown Manhattan skyline, including the Empire State Building and the United Nations. Enjoy a relaxing stroll along the park's four piers or through the park's manicured gardens and unique mist fountain. Along the way take a moment to admire the rugged beauty of the park's centerpieces - restored gantries. These industrial monuments were once used to load and unload rail car floats and barges; today they are striking reminders of our waterfront's past. With the city skyline as a backdrop and the gantries as a stage, the park's plaza is a wonderful place to enjoy a spring or summer concert. Recreational facilities include basketball courts, playgrounds, handball courts, and a fishing pier with its own cleaning table.

- Kiranprit K.“A clean neighborhood park with wonderful views of the city from the Queens side. It's equiped with modern looking seating and trim surrounded by luxurious high rise apartments. During the day it's a cool hangout for the little ones and at night a nice place to chill out if you are dining or drinking somewhere in the area. “
