Keep reading for Jenna’s sappy love letter to Battery Park City 💌
I could write a whole page about the way the sun hits the Hudson River at golden hour, or about Teardrop Park feeling like a hidden little world tucked inside the city. I could go on about the waterfront parks along the Hudson River, the breezy paths that make an evening stroll feel like a reset, and the quiet escape from the busyness of downtown Manhattan.
The first time I really spent time down here, I thought it was just “a nice pocket near the water.” The truth is it’s an urban oasis—calm, green, and somehow still right in the middle of everything.
