According to the Mayor's office the space will offer views of the hills, waterways, and plenty of areas designated to birdwatching. There will also be parking and waterless restrooms.
Mayor Adams opened the North Park section of Freshkills Park in Staten Island — the first section inside the former Fresh Kills Landfill site to open to the public."We all remember this Freshkills. It was nothing fresh about the smell that came out here. It killed," said Mayor Eric Adams.
Freshkills Park in Staten Island occupies what used to be the largest landfill in the world, and where New York City dumped all of its trash. Closed in 2001, the area is now being developed into a 2,200 acre park three times the size of Central Park.According to the Mayor's office the opening will offer views of the hills and waterways. This will include access to the William T. Davis Wildlife Refuge and plenty of areas designated to birdwatching.
This is the first phase of reconstruction for the park. The entire park isn't expected to be complete until 2036.
