Welcome to Battery Park City
This serene 92-acre planned community on the southernmost point of Manhattan is filled with lush greenery, scenic views of the Hudson, and idyllic spots for quiet reflection. Battery Park City is a well-deserved break from the hustle and bustle of downtown NYC. Battery Park City was once the home of container ships and seaport traffic. In the 1960s, the city reclaimed the land and founded the Battery Park City Authority to own and operate the neighborhood. By the 1970s, it had become a model construction plan for urban residential living. Today, families and couples flock to this peaceful community.
