Well there you have it folks! Gantry Park’s northern boardwalk is finally open to pedestrian traffic!

Now you’ll get to bring a loved one under the glowing lights of the Pepsi Cola sign and ask her (or him, we’re in NY) to marry you! Or perhaps you can push that stroller a bit longer until your baby falls asleep! Or better yet, you can now walk directly to Anable’s Basin and enjoy some great grub on the water!

Either way, we’re glad to see the new stretch open up…and excited to be one of the first to report it (thanks Michael!).

Update: Here’s a quick video of the (quiet) area Sunday afternoon. It’s somewhat surreal!
