Empire Fulton Ferry
NOT ACCESSIBLE - CLOSED FOR RECONSTRUCTION
Empire Fulton Ferry Park is the existing nine-acre waterfront park located between the historic Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges. From its graceful lawns and boardwalk, Empire Fulton Ferry offers beautiful views of the harbor and Lower Manhattan skyline. Bordering the park are the Civil-War era Empire Stores and Tobacco Warehouse, which played an integral part in the great shipping activities that once dominated this portion of the Brooklyn waterfront.
The park is currently closed and under construction. As part of the park’s restoration, Jane’s Carousel, a gift of Jane and David Walentas, will be installed in the park amid new plantings, seating and lighting.
