East River Park, Public park in Lower East Side Manhattan, United States
East River Park extends for 57 acres along Manhattan's eastern waterfront, featuring sports fields, playgrounds, and paths for running and cycling.
Robert Moses designed this waterfront green space in the 1930s, transforming former industrial shipping yards into a public recreation area.
The park's amphitheater received a dedication to children who lost parents during the September 11 attacks, representing community strength.
Multiple transportation options connect to the park, which remains partially open during its current renovation project scheduled until 2026.
The Lower East Side Ecology Center manages thousands of volunteers who maintain native plant gardens throughout the park's grounds.
