Ennis Park is a neighborhood park in the Marine Park section of Brooklyn, providing recreational space for the residential community of southeastern Brooklyn.
The park features playgrounds, athletic fields, and open green space serving the families of the Marine Park neighborhood, one of Brooklyn's quieter, more suburban-feeling communities.
Marine Park, the neighborhood, takes its name from the massive Marine Park to the south, Brooklyn's largest park at 798 acres. Ennis Park supplements this major park with a smaller, more neighborhood-oriented recreational space.
The Marine Park area of Brooklyn retains a neighborhood character that feels far removed from the density of downtown Brooklyn or the brownstone neighborhoods of Park Slope and Fort Greene.
Ennis Park serves the local community with the kind of practical, family-oriented recreational space that makes residential neighborhoods livable.
