City Island, River island and recreation park in Harrisburg, United States.
City Island extends across the Susquehanna River, featuring paved walking trails, a baseball stadium, boat docks, and multiple sports fields for outdoor activities.
The island served as a strategic military training ground during World War II before transforming into a recreational space for the Pennsylvania capital region.
The FNB Field baseball stadium hosts regular games of the Harrisburg Senators minor league team, drawing thousands of sports enthusiasts throughout the season.
The island provides 1000 parking spaces, public restrooms, picnic tables, and direct access from both sides of Harrisburg via the Market Street Bridge.
During spring floods, the Susquehanna River occasionally submerges parts of the island, creating temporary waterfalls over the concrete walking paths.
