List Of New York City Parks - New York City Parks

This is a list of New York City parks. Three entities manage parks within New York City, each with its own responsibilities:

• Federal â€" US National Park Service (NPS) - both open-space and historic properties
• State â€" New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (NYSP)
• Municipal â€" New York City Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR)

The city has 28,000 acres (113 km²) of municipal parkland and 14 miles (22 km) of public municipal beaches. Major municipal parks include Central Park, Prospect Park, Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, Forest Park, and Washington Square Park. The largest is Pelham Bay Park, followed by the Staten Island Greenbelt.

Additionally, some parks, most notably Gramercy Park, are privately owned and managed. Access to these private parks may be restricted.

The City Parks Foundation offers more than 1200 free performing arts events in parks across the city each year, including Central Park Summerstage, the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival and dance, theater, and children's arts festivals.
