    Nice chill spot for a hot day, lots of trees and shades. Public restroom and water fountains are also available. It’s very easy to bike to, right next to the biking path and Citi bike station.

    "BIP" is overused and overbooked. Too many soccer teams have to parcel up the field into too many small areas for practice - often too small to practice passing or corner kicks. Only part if the worn out turf has been replaced which makes the field bumpy. What is this mayor doing with our tax dollars? Very windy in winter because of the exposed location on the East River. Small playground for younger kids and adjacent dog run. Small bathrooms with one stall, beaten up and covered with graffiti. Flood lights in the evening. Very difficult parking for soccer parents. Large parts closed off for repairs. How many years will take these repairs take the city? Bottomline: unfortunately this is as good as it gets in a city in which tax dollars are wasted on ineffective mental health experiments on the homeless which leaves no funds for our kids and the middle class.

    Good park that could be so much better. Just attended rally sponsored by Friends of Bushwick Inlet Park. City still needs to allocate funds to tear down this storage facility and complete the park. 16 years in the making; it’s time to finish the job!

    Mixed use park with a large soccer pitch(turf) and small playground area. Turf has seen better days. Lots of potential, but feels a bit neglected. Good river views with benches.

    Grew up between in NY/NJ.. My very first time venturing out to BROOKLYN, NY. It's the congestion and parking that turns me off. BUT, for my first trip on the Eve of Fourth of July 2022, it was beautiful!! I went to an open air public church meeting, called Domino Revival. It was a bustling night. Got some pics of red, white, and blue buildings. Skyline was gorgeous. Ppl were in a good, fun, relaxed mood, enjoying the Holiday. Was perfect first impression. ❤️😎✨

    Very clean and beautiful, very very beautiful because of the very beautiful views that this side has towards Manhattan and a view of the beautiful sky and water and very tall buildings from the bridge and all these together are amazing, many benches to sit on. Yes, a lot of people were here with their dogs, great for walking and running with very nice views.

    By far the most aggressive park staff I have ever dealt with - totally detracts from the experience of being there. Also have no idea how a park of this scale can be closed to dogs. First negative park experience out of the dozens in the city/BK.

    Took my friend from out of town here recently while walking along the Williamsburg waterfront and he was impressed. I’ve been by here when it was colder but now got to see it full of green. Besides the incredible view of the Manhattan skyline (from the top of the hill) there are a few other things that make this park unique. There are lounge chairs where you can rest and catch some rays while having your bike along your side. There are plenty of tables and chairs to enjoy a snack (especially on a Saturday….Smorgasborg is just north of here) or play a game of chess. Two sprinkler options are excellent for cooling off on a hot day. One fixture is in the form of colorful spraying squiggles and the other is hidden in the ground. Look for a button on a pedestal to activate them.

    Beautiful well kept Park. The field is well lit and full of soccer and football players. Clean bathrooms open after 8pm. Nice location by the water. I also spotted a dog park that seemed pretty popular.

    Big open field great for ball playing. There sprinkler to cool off for people and pets. Nice spot for pets to run around in a gated area. There are a few benches around the park. Great view of Manhattan.

    I love this park. It’s well laid out and maintained. I have visited this place both at day and night and always felt safe. It’s a great asset to the neighborhood.
