Fort Greene Park, Urban park in Brooklyn, United States.
Fort Greene Park extends across 30 acres of natural rolling hills and open meadows, featuring walking paths through groves of mature trees.
The area served as Fort Putnam during the Revolutionary War before its transformation into a public park designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in 1867.
The Prison Ship Martyrs Monument stands as a 149-foot Doric column at the park's center, commemorating 11,500 American soldiers who died on British vessels.
Six tennis courts near the DeKalb Avenue entrance remain available for public use through seasonal permits or single-play tickets.
The park contains 50 different tree species, with numerous specimens dating back to the original 1860s landscape design among Brooklyn's oldest trees.
