For directions to Little Island, please click here.

Little Island has an ADA accessible all-gender restroom available for use. All public restrooms are equipped with changing tables. Restrooms are located near The Glade just past the South Bridge entrance to the park. We encourage patrons to use any restroom that best aligns with their gender identity.

Little Island is ADA compliant and all areas are accessible using our pathways. The majority of our pathways are paved, but you will encounter dirt when you enter The Glade and grass if you choose to enter the lawns.

We have two loaner wheelchairs available. Please see our park staff if you would like to borrow a wheelchair during your visit. You must leave an ID with our park staff in order to borrow a wheelchair.

For events in The Amph, we have eight wheelchair and scooter-accessible locations available where patrons can remain in their wheelchairs. These locations are available at both the stage level and at the top of the theater. Please reserve this accommodation when you purchase your performance ticket. Wheelchair locations at the top of the theater are also available any time The Amph is open as public space.

Working dogs assisting patrons with disabilities are welcome at Little Island. Pets and emotional support animals are not allowed at Little Island, as our horticulture team works hard to maintain our garden beds and lawns that can be soiled by pet waste and activities. We’re a small park with a lot of visitors, and plenty of plants and flowers that need preservation.

The closest Citibike stations to Little Island are located along 10th Avenue on 14th Street and 15th Street. Alternatively, there are additional locations by The High Line on West 16th Street, as well as on the corner of Washington and Gansevoort Streets.

You can listen to our History Audio Tour and Landscape Audio Tour here.

Breastfeeding is welcome in all areas of the park. There are no private breastfeeding lounges or lactation stations for electronic pumping. Refrigeration or heating of expressed milk or formula is not available.

A water bottle refill station is location just outside the restrooms and there are water fountains location by the south bridge and in The Play Ground.

ASL interpretation is available for several of our performances. Assistive listening devices are available for performances in The Amph and The Glade. Please see a member of our park staff if you would like to borrow
one.

If you are looking for a quieter time to visit, the months of November to March are usually the least crowded.

Wheelchair and scooter-accessible locations are available in the rear row of the Amphitheater (sections 1, 3, and 5).
