Fun Facts

The sanctuary was closed from 1934 until 2001 to allow the area to recover and thrive without human interference.

This makes it a popular spot for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts in the heart of Manhattan.

Alongside the Ramble and North Woods, it provides a natural escape amidst the urban landscape.

It was renamed in honor of George Harvey Hallett Jr., a birdwatcher and conservationist.

Despite its small size, it offers a diverse ecosystem and a peaceful retreat from the city's hustle and bustle.
