Prospect Park is the Central Park of Brooklyn; in fact it was designed by landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, who designed Manhattan's Central Park. This 526 acre oasis in the middle of the city is divided into three areas:

90-acre meadow on the west side
natural forest in the center
60-acre lake on the east side

Here you'll find a change of environment and place to rest away from the hustle and bustle of one of the world's greatest cities. Here you'll see the blending of the many ethnic groups that form Brooklyn, one of the finest examples of ethnic/social melting pots in the world.

Host to hundreds of events annually, including concerts, sporting events, performing arts, festivals, and tours, Prospect Park's attractions include the:

Bandshell
Boathouse located on the Lullwater
Carousel
Kate Wollman Center and Rink
Lefferts Homestead Historic House Children's Museum
Memorial Arch at Grand Army Plaza
Nethermead
Picnic House (overlooking Long Meadow)
Playgrounds (5)
