Beautiful park with morning sunshine. It feels so peaceful to hear children playing and see families gathering here for the weekend. It adds a hint of warmth and tranquility for life in this busy megapolis :)
Visited in the summer. Lovely place to visit especially with kids. There are playgrounds, geese, ponds with tortoises and spaces for sports.
People can barbecue and have private events.
A lovely place to wander around in any season. I was super lucky with the sunny weather and a good temperature in December! There is plenty of space for sports, cooking, or having a chat.
The park is only a short walk from Central Park and is well served by the Subway and bus, e.g. 125th Street
Great park for walks and sitting on the benches. Great view of St John's on its lower level. There are some geese walking around so I am not sure about sitting on the grass.
didn’t realize how large this park is but it is pretty huge and pretty well-maintained for the areas that i saw. Morningside Park stretches from 110th Street to 123rd Street between Morningside Heights and Harlem. The park hosts a bunch of features from playgrounds to athletic fields / courts to a waterfall & pond and more. to me, the coolest feature is the cliff that juts upward out of the park that provides a cool bird’s-eye view of Harlem to the east…after climbing a bunch of stairs that lead to 116th and Morningside Drive reveals a statue but more importantly an awesome sight above the park and to the east. winter probably isn’t the best time to enjoy most of the features of the park but i am looking forward to enjoying them during the warmer months of 2024…so should you!
