One of my favorite parks I like to spend time at the sunset. You can enjoy the view of verazano bridge. The view of Manhattan is also a spectacle after the sunset. There is also an abandoned fort that is restricted to enter.

TCS New York City marathon start village. Very well organized. Spacious. Coffee bagel, energy drink, gels and water available. No queues at the restrooms. Big screen to watch the race and follow instructions in multiple languages. Lots of super kind volunteers. It’s clean, garbage gets sorted to recycle. Therapy dog station available to ease the nerves. Security is good and there is visible crowd control observance from the tower. Great experience
