Cool bridge for trains, creating atmosphere near Astoria Park and along East River. The community does a pretty good job respecting and keeping this place nice for all to bike, run, walk or just enjoy some free space in our beloved Big Apple! Enjoy it and pick up a piece of trash if ya see it ~ truly liberating and honorable. Citi bikes stations all around this area but some of the bikes are not well attended fyi. A grocery store and nice coffee shop is nearby. There were numerous ice cream trucks around the area also in the evening.
