Little Island opened to the public in May 2021 and has since brought in plenty of visitors who flocked to see Manhattan’s "floating" greenspace. Open from 6am daily, the park is filled with open lawns, colorful shrubs and trees and a secret garden.
For those feeling peckish, there are affordable food and drink options offered by Union Square Events. The park’s amphitheaters, The Glade and The Amph, offer a spectacular view of the Hudson River, with a majority of the events being free throughout the summer.
