1 / 3Last Chance Pond Park
đ Staten Island, NY
A small wildlife refuge and nature park featuring walking trails, recently developed from reclaimed land between Staten Island neighborhoods and Hylan Boulevard.
đ Family Action Verdict
This is better suited for older children interested in nature observation rather than active play, as it's primarily a wildlife refuge with restricted access. Families should expect a brief viewing experience rather than a traditional park visit with playground equipment or extensive trails.

âI grew up in the neighborhood of this park. At that time, this was a large empty lot with abandoned cars and garbage. It was great to see the land cleaned up and developed into a nature park, not high density housing!â

âThis area is a natural watershed or blue belt collecting stormwater from the area. it is basically in its natural state with various ponds. The water drains eventually into the Atlantic Ocean.â
