    What a great little hidden park for people with kids and dogs. We were out for a long walk on the waterfront and my dog was so hot and dirty. I was so happy to see the spraying water fountain and we went and played in it to cool down. I will definitely make this a more regular spot on our trips out!

    I love that he played here as a child. The park is your local childhood playground. Located in Brooklyn Heights. Whimsical bear statues and the sound of the train nearby bring an ambiance you can only find in Brooklyn.

    Adam Yauch Park, or as my friends call it Bear Park (after the statues of bears inside), is a great park for whatever people want in a park. It has amazing basketball courts that for some reason you can always find them free, and has to be the only place in NYC like that. Even the playground, geared towards kids, is really fun to hang out in. Overall, if in the neighbourhood, do visit this park.

    Nice little park tucked away in a corner of Brooklyn heights. The park is off the path that most tourists would take and has not become a pedestrian throughway, as squibb park in the north heights has become.The park has sprinklers in the summer and has a medium-sized jungle gym with a slide. The tables make it a nice place to bring lunch and hang out on a hot summers day.

    Was so happy to get here finally. It is a very cute park not huge but not small. Perfect for the kids and has a decent priced parking garage right next to it. R.I.P. MCA :( thank you for donating this brother.

    A great little dog friendly park in Brooklyn. An excellent playground with both half court and a full court basketball hoops. Tibetan flags adorn the southeastern corner of the park. A great tribute to a great artist.

    Nice park, with basketball courts and monkey bars for kids, the sprinklers are a nice addition. Its right on the ramp for the QBE which is a little annoying for pollution/noise, but nevertheless its always busy and with nice people.

    Nice little park. Such a shame its being let go, some keep up of the area would be nice. Also better stronger barriers by the extremely busy traffic and nutball drivers

  • Review 12 (2018-06-12 - Rating: 4)

    Decent, it has good climbing structures and a water sprinkler, as typically found in all parks. It usually has young children, but is not usually crowded.

  • Review 13 (2021-12-06 - Rating: 5)

    It was great seeing family and friends in this Park having a good time and the Park is named after one of the Beastie boys but whats the problem with the city keeping the place clean and in good condition

  • Review 36 (2019-06-16 - Rating: 5)

    Great park in the neighborhood with plenty of monkey bars and entertainment for kids, including a sprinkler. Its at the edge of the ramp to the BQE so it can be a little noisy.

    Very nice park in Brooklyn! I was excited when I saw that it had the name of Adam Yauch, one of the members of the Beastie Boys who died in 2012 from cancer.
