New York Park
About New York Park
Recreational Facilities
Positioned in the Glendale hills, this cozy 1.85-acre green space represents a little oasis for the local community. Perched on an elevated spot, the park rewards visitors with beautiful views of the surrounding area.
Kids have their own domain here with a small but modern playground that's meant for the 2-12 age range. If you've got little ones between 1-6 years old, they'll especially love the age-appropriate play structures.
For the basketball enthusiasts among us, there's a full-court outdoor basketball facility waiting for your next pickup game. Just plan your games during daylight hours since the court isn't lit for evening play.
Picnic Areas
Feeling hungry after shooting some hoops? There are some nice picnic spots available.
You'll find three barbecues available if you're in the mood for some outdoor cooking, plus four picnic tables that you can't reserve ahead of time - they work on a first-come, first-served basis, so arriving early on nicer days might be smart.
Landscape and Atmosphere
What really makes New York Park special is its peaceful vibe. Mature trees cast dappled shade throughout the grounds, and the hillside setting gives you a welcome break from Glendale's more bustling areas.
One of the park's best features? It's rarely crowded - except during major holidays like Easter. This makes it a great little retreat when you need some quiet time outdoors.
Amenities
You'll come across public restrooms available when nature calls, but like many park facilities, the maintenance can be hit or miss. The park's compact layout means everything is just a short stroll away, which is particularly convenient if you're visiting with children or carrying picnic supplies.
Community Space
No matter if you're planning a casual afternoon out, a small family gathering, or looking for a spot to connect with neighbors, New York Park offers a suitable setting. It's not trying to be Central Park - it's a humble, charming community space in the Glendale neighborhood.
