Lonely Planet review for Sara D Roosevelt Park

Spiffed up just in time for the arrival of its tony new luxury-condo neighbors, this remade little park is a place that most New Yorkers will remember as more of a junkie’s spot for scoring than an actual plot of green space. But it’s joined the ranks of other rejuvenated ‘needle parks’ – such as Bryant Park and Tompkins Sq Park – and is now a three-block respite from urban chaos. Grab an ethnic picnic-to-go at any of the nearby food spots and settle into a shady corner; if you’ve got kids with you, there’s a nice little playground that’s perfect for letting off steam.
