Fun Facts

The park features a large rock wall made from stones sourced from the same quarry as the iconic New York City brownstones.

Teardrop Park was designed by Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates to mimic the natural landscapes of the Hudson River Valley.

The park incorporates sustainable design elements, including a stormwater management system that recycles rainwater for irrigation.

Teardrop Park features a series of art installations, including a prominent water sculpture by Ann Hamilton.

The park is home to native plant species that support local wildlife, creating a small urban ecosystem.

In winter, the park's sloped areas are transformed into a popular sledding spot for local families.
