The Stuyvesant Cove Park Association is committed to bringing people of all ages to Stuyvesant Cove Park to enjoy relaxation, renewal, entertainment, and education.
Stuyvesant Cove Park is located on the Manhattan side of the East River adjacent to FDR Drive between East 18th Street and East 23rd Street. The park is connected to NYC Ferry’s Stuyvesant Cove landing.
An annual Friends of Stuyvesant Cove Park meeting is held each October. Attendees learn about the status of the park, hear reports on past events and plans for the future, and share any of their own concerns and observations.
