Viewed from shore, the island looks interesting, and there are great views from the island of New York Harbor and New Jersey, but the island itself is pretty underwhelming. Disappointing landscaping.
Nice little park that gets incredibly busy. Come early. Great views of NYC and NJ

Use the barbecue area and eat with a stunning view of the harbor and Manhattan
