In 1986, artist Mark di Suvero helped transform an abandoned landfill located right on the East River into a public park. This act of urban renewal has been a gift to LIC residents and visitors alike who are able to enjoy season-long outdoor sculptures, movie screenings, farmers markets on the weekend, and even free yoga. This tranquil place has been the site of numerous site-specific installations from artists around the world, helping to make this 4-acre site NYC's largest outdoor space dedicated to exhibiting sculpture.
