Little Island

About Little Island

Opened in 2021 on the remains of Pier 54, Little Island rests on 132 tulip-shaped concrete pots at varying heights, creating rolling lawns, a 687-seat amphitheatre and overlooks across the Hudson. Entry is free, and free or low-cost performances run through the warmer months; timed passes may be needed on busy afternoons.
