Hunts Point Riverside Park

An NYC Parks property on Lafayette Av between Edgewater Rd and the Bronx River, carried as X336 and 0.43 acres. NYC Parks lists barbecuing areas, fishing, kayak/canoe launch sites and Wi-Fi hot spots here, and describes the park as a gateway to the revitalized Bronx River, a major connector to the Bronx River Greenway, and a home to kayakers, canoers, and paddlers from across the city — a site once an illegal dumping ground, since transformed into a waterfront oasis, with a pier for fishing, a kayak and canoe launch, and a spray shower and playground that take the shape of built-in canoes. Its Parks Vital Signs give a Park Condition Score of 91, recent investment of $754K and 98 mapped trees.
