Sunset Park Greenway is a developing waterfront path along the western shore of Sunset Park, connecting Industry City, Bush Terminal Park, and the working waterfront in one of Brooklyn's most diverse and dynamic neighborhoods.
The greenway provides access to the Sunset Park waterfront, which has been an active industrial zone since the early 20th century. The Bush Terminal complex, built in 1895, was one of the largest industrial parks in the United States.
Sunset Park's waterfront is undergoing a complex transformation, with creative businesses occupying former industrial buildings while active maritime and manufacturing operations continue alongside. The greenway provides public access through this evolving landscape.
The neighborhood of Sunset Park is one of Brooklyn's most diverse, with the largest Chinatown in Brooklyn, a significant Latin American population, and a growing Middle Eastern community sharing the hillside above the waterfront.
Sunset Park Greenway connects the neighborhood's diverse communities to a waterfront that is balancing industrial heritage, creative economy, and public access in one of the most complex urban landscapes in Brooklyn.
