Everyone goes to McCarren Park, but if you take the B43 bus to the end you'll get this little inlet, which is a great place for a drink or to stare off at the water.

If you're an environmentalist, you may appreciate this unique educational nature walk that runs between Newtown Creek (the site a huge oil spill) and the treatment plant.

Enjoy a walk through an industrial part of Greenpoint. Notice the Lenape (Delaware Nation) inscriptions that remond us of the original inhabitants of our neighborhood. If you’re lucky, you might spot some critters.
