Little Island

Little Island is a small, 8-acre park in the Hudson River located in New York City. It lies just offshore between Manhattan and the adjacent neighborhood of Chelsea on the west and Hell’s Kitchen on the east. Spanning the River’s West Channel, Little Island includes landscaped lawns, tree-lined pathways, and a meandering boardwalk along the water’s edge. The park also features play areas, outdoor creative spaces, and sculptures tucked around its picturesque grounds. Connected to the mainland by the Riverwalk Pedestrian Bridge and the historic Chelsea Lifeline, Little Island is easily accessible from Chelsea’s Chelsea Piers and Hell’s Kitchen’s West Side Highway. The park affords stunning views of the sun setting over the Hudson, the George Washington Bridge, and the majestic Statue of Liberty. It's perfect for picnicking, relaxing, and taking a leisurely stroll in NYC.
