Reviews
"So beautiful here sometimes."
"Going into the Park through the entrance itself, you already feel a sense of freedom upon walking in. And going up the bird tower left of the entrance, gave a feeling of neverending vastness. To see Manhattan and The Bayonne Bridge from so far could make one feel so small. Staring down 7-13 miles my home City of Manhattan, and just hundreds of miles in general, and the path I took to get here."
"Parking lot is supposed to be Wild Avenue/East Service Road. Near FairField Suites"
"Absolutely magnificent"
"This place is a dump - quite literally. 2 stars instead of one because the noxious aroma of decomposing human waste no longer permeates throughout the rest of the island. Although there are still some days when I feel like I can still smell it"
