That's called blessing the park legend has it if you don't bless the park in such fashion crime will be rampant and the park will forever belong to crime and it won't be a peaceful park
Lol $260 million for this... we need affordable housing and mental services for the homeless, not a expensive park built over water in the wealthiest suburb of NY
yep. perfect location for attacking rich high rise tenants near by. One downside is joggers can't swim though, if they are being chased, blocked in. Good thing Di Blasio will have a hands off approach
The race is on. I wonder who is gonna be the first one to mug someone there ;) If you gonna do it, you may as well be the first one. Again, I can’t emphasize enough. Be safe!
Put “money to spruce up the park next door”. Instead of building this one I just feel like there’s so many horrible diseases, needy Children in America out there. a Park next-to a💰💵💸Park . 🤷♀️ not my money not my business
Give it time ... watch the zombies take it over. Its going to need its own precinct or 24hr rolling patrol. Can u just see NYPD responding to that location regularly 11,12 and 1am in the morning constantly walking,riding a bike or scooter up that pier 🙄
@@DoggieNYC A botanical garden or a zoo doesnt have crime. They should treat it as such and charge a fee as in monthy/yearly pass ... Just imagine if you let the everyone in NYC into the manhattan zoo or MOMA for free everyday ... it would be trashed in a year or gradually over time. With its current FREE admission its just a matter of time before it turns into a high end Central Park/Washington Sq. Park where no ones going to care about the rules that are already set in place by Little Island such as no alcohol,smoking, littering, no dogs, solicitation, skateboards, skates ,scooters, fighting etc ... Give it time ... Its NYC, I guarantee you people will start selling their own artwork, street performers and sell bottles of water .... Its going to be a magnet for trouble unless you charge people !!!
Great place for artists to paint and sell their work, street performers ... A high-end FREE retreat for criminals and mentally disturbed to hang out, panhandle, drink,smoke weed (its legal now) ... Way to to Little Island. How do you try and keep the bad element away ? Charge a small monthly/yearly fee !!!
@@MyKeeP81 Afraid of life ? LMAO ... just afraid to see it turn into Washington Sq. Give it time ... And they are only doing the tickets because its new and they want to hype it up, people are not going to keep going online to get a ticket, They're just going to walk in. Can u imagine having to keep getting a ticket to go in there ... The hype will die down and it will turn into a high-end FREE retreat for criminals and mentally disturbed to hang out, panhandle, drink,smoke weed. Imagine if the Manhattan zoo was FREE or Rockafella skating rink was FREE in the winter ... You cant hand out certain things for FREE because people fk it up for everyone else .... NYC has always been that way.
WHAt a waste of money !!!! NYC has fell to nothing ..millions of dollars for a park but they cant build housing for homeless or help families in need..but build a stupid park..there are plenty of parks already..SMH ..bare nonsense ..
The skate park in central park took 25 years but Trump finally finished it under budget and before schedule. HAHAHAHA. $260 million for this? HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA
They could have invested the money used to build this useless and ugly park to improve the New York Subway system. I mean seriously, what benefits can be derived from building a park that is significantly much smaller than the Central Park which offers much more green space in the first place?
Great idea It’s said we should spend at least ten minutes a day communing with nature I’d say this park will only help the nasty people with nothing good to say It was built by private funds! What a gift to the community
Well, , you will go ones out of curiosity and that’s gonna be it. Thous “ tulips “ look like spores from some horror movie. But fine. Let riches spend their money, but don’t add a penny from taxpayers money!
@@TNMUSlC Didnt need that park to encourage tourism. Tourists already a captive audience. It's a beautification project, money could have been spent wiser. Its yo make the people who hijacked that neighborhood, fell special.
Why not? The Highline is especially beautiful right now. Spend more time outdoors and get some sun. You're wasting too much commenting on UA-cam in a dark basement.
Reporter was having so much fun with the piano steps 🎹 that he forgot what he was supposed to say😂😂😂
finally getting around to building more housing for the homeless I see
First homeless tent already went up today.
Good
Your tent?
It's true the fist homeless tent went up and I smoked the first blunt in the park it's bad luck if we don't do this
That's called blessing the park legend has it if you don't bless the park in such fashion crime will be rampant and the park will forever belong to crime and it won't be a peaceful park
It’s only a matter of time until it gets trashed
No one asked for this. We need affordable housing that's actually affordable
It's their money they can do as they please. But i do agree with ur sentiment which is why we should tax them.
@@GoGoPooerRangers the reason for donating it is tax write off also
@@fuckheinschitt239 i rather take it from people like you 😉
@@fuckheinschitt239 you a loser !!! its people like you who come to our city an ruined it..
People need to work for a living, and save, and get their own housing!! Like me! Nothing was given to me!!
Lol $260 million for this... we need affordable housing and mental services for the homeless, not a expensive park built over water in the wealthiest suburb of NY
the city didn't pay for it. how about donate your money to that?
@@BK_2016sr5 you dont have great reading comprehension skills do you
Go complain to the organization directly and not in youtube comments.
Another brainless idi0t
Looks like a great place for a new autonomous zone. 😂😅😂.
We just watched NYC go down in flames for a year and you built this?
project started years ago. Looking for likes?
was planned years ago dumbass
Must be trump trash
Man that whole resort looks like a work of art :o
How about housing for the homeless
There we go, good comment.
The hotel has already been rented out for HOBO. losing money and wasting tax money as I type. You need more?
Thank you 🙏 Diane and Barry for getting the money together for this beautiful space I love the grass on the hill it’s so perfect 👌
🎃🎃
Soon to be "The Homeless Island"
@Jon Doe BLM is not funding it, idiot!🙄
is this a knife-slashing free zone?
No . You’re town has that? Really?
@taton384 bdr342 Way to escalate the situation by pulling up the finger...nice!🙄🥱
A really great way to see the beautiful skyline of Jersey.
Could become a favorite stomping ground for the juvenile jogging community.
yep. perfect location for attacking rich high rise tenants near by. One downside is joggers can't swim though, if they are being chased, blocked in. Good thing Di Blasio will have a hands off approach
It really is a wonderful little park -- a must-see if you're visiting Manhattan or live in the area. Hats off to Barry for funding.
I really don't understand why they built this park, this almost 300 million dollars could have helped the housing and homeless crisis' in the city
they wanna attract money more than helping housing
This is how money is wasted. This amount of money can do so much more. Go to other countries and this is just not worth paying attention
Is the dude money, he can spend it on however he likes it. You want to invest in another country? You are welcome to do it with your own money.
@@TNMUSlC This was done with private money people! Similar to the Highline.
Nice!Place to Relax!!
260 million🤦🏻♂️..sum1 always find a way to blow money stupidly could of did sumthing way better & helpful
Just wait for the muggings!
The race is on. I wonder who is gonna be the first one to mug someone there ;)
If you gonna do it, you may as well be the first one.
Again, I can’t emphasize enough. Be safe!
jesus youre afraid of life. you have to go online to get a time slot ticket just to even get in righ now
This is really awesome man made island 👍, visited recently here
At least you'll be able to watch the sunset while getting robbed
260 million is a joke for this park were did 200 million go

a Park next-to a💰💵💸Park .
🤷♀️ not my money not my business
What’s the under over for how long it takes someone getting attacked or murdered there.
Those guys were so high lmao sitting on the grass
What a Interesting and very creative park!
There is a better version of that chime thing in India that was built 1000s of years back.

exactly.
New island for druggies and criminal to target
Do you expect NY to not have any crime

The homeless are gonna take over
There is not enough shade in this park. Ppl are gonna bake in the hot summer over there!
LOL yep, Ima come after 5Pm
Dont worry, they spent $260 million on this, im sure it comes with flying shade drones for the people in the park
That thing is the ugliest construct I have ever seen.
1:12 Little Island Park Amphitheater
Where I can go to make an reservation online?
The comments really gotta ruin the mood ugh but anyway this looks interesting. I'll check it out when I can.
If it were free but not for 30 bucks an hour.
It is free. I walked right in this morning. Very nice spot.
@@BillDyszel what can I do there besides have a baseball catch or go fishing? What street is parellel to. Hudson River near like javitz?
it looks nice and peaceful. put up a sign❌ 🏃♂️🏃♂️❌
Very wired and interesting too!!
AWESOME!!!
I can see a 'barrier' being built on that pier! One way in one way out, ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK.
More like when you get criminalize there is no way out but 1 lmao
GREAT JOB NYC👏👏
It's going to be washed away soon.

Come on, Guys. Give some credit to the brilliant designer of the park, Thomas Heatherwick. He is a British artist who also designed "The Vessel".
Will people be committing suicide from this park at the same rate that they do from "The Vessel"?
@@gljm I'm sure of it. It's all the rage now. Really, nearly everybody is choosing the next life over this one.
its so good to see that hardly anyone is wearing a mask, its about time 👍
Seems cool
Great did they add cameras around 😏
Glad to see the ambitious projects of the Mayor and Governor but sooner or later with no place to go it will just become another homeless encampment
You watched the article? It was private. By your last name i see the Polish intelligence stereotype is being perpetuated

Watch cyclist going to use it and said they need to have a bike lane there.
I'll get bored there sooooooo fast.
Awesome
What a gross misuse of funds.

260 million for this ??? And we have 15000 dying children every single day from starvation.
I dont dig this world
Anyone still wearing a mask might as well wear an “I voted for Biden” shirt.
We see you!
Proudly lol
It will be nice until some dumb*ss shows up talking negative about who's wearing Biden shirts!
@techtiger Maga “make America gross again”! Lol 😂
Oh, so that's why there are so many wearing them and a very few uncovering in hopes it might revive their long missing manhood.
@techtiger You are worse than dirt.
You are a traitor to our democracy.
Now go hug your guns and not your daughter.
So this is what my tax money is going? 🤦🏽♀️
Barry Diller paid for it, no tax money involved.
@@BillDyszel ohhh ok
@@flyerthantheg6 Diller is also maintaining it for the next 10 years. Private events in the park also help to pay for maintenance.

So glad I live in an area with real parks lol. Y’all can keep ya artificial made park
They need a park separated from the mainland by a causeway because the city itself is too dangerous!
😆
The anti-homeless comments are sad and probably from a few who are a couple of paychecks or bad investments away.
Watch for the summer of love
@techtiger Are you worried about the park or are you worried about BLM and Antifa? If it’s the second option, don’t talk about it here!🙄
