The play areas will include a “swing valley” built along the southern edge of the pier featuring long rope swings, a “slide mountain” with two-story high slides that empty into a large sand box with stone animals , a water-play area, climbing structure, and a “boulder mountain.”

A park concession building with a 1000-square-foot restaurant and roof top deck, three sand volleyball courts, and a dog run will also be constructed. Plans are underway for a new water taxi dock at Pier 6 that will offer direct service between Brooklyn Bridge Park and Governor’s Island.
