Tottenville Pool and Park is a three-acre recreation facility on Hylan Boulevard at Joline Avenue in Tottenville, the southernmost neighborhood in New York City. The park provides swimming and recreation at the very end of Staten Island's South Shore.
Tottenville is a quiet residential community at the tip of Staten Island, closer to New Jersey than to Manhattan. The neighborhood retains a small-town atmosphere with modest homes, community shops, and a pace of life that feels far removed from the intensity of the urban core.
The park features a swimming pool, a playground, and open recreation areas. The pool provides summer swimming for the Tottenville community and surrounding South Shore neighborhoods, serving as one of the few public swimming facilities at the southern end of the island.
Tottenville's southernmost position gives the community a geographic distinction: it is the last neighborhood in New York State, with nothing between it and the open waters of Raritan Bay. This geographic extremity contributes to the neighborhood's insular, end-of-the-line character.
Tottenville Pool and Park serves the southernmost community in New York City with essential recreation, providing swimming and play space at the very tip of the island where the city finally gives way to the bay.
