One of the oddities of the Bronx, the Aqueduct walk connects Knightsbridge Rd and MLK Blvd by the Washington Bridge
I actually live one block away from this park. I lived in this neighborhood for 28 years. Aqueduct 🚶♀️🚶♂️ walk has seen a major renovation. When i first came to Aqueduct walk it was a sad sight to see. The lights in the poles in the park where broken. It was totally dark at night. The park benches were missing parts and pieces. The handball courts were always littered with empty beer bottles and cans. Lots of drug paraphernalia. It was really bad.
Today it has been totally transformed into a beautiful park. New park benchs and lighting all over the entire park. Handball courts are brand new and well maintained . The park has a new play area for the children. Giant sprinkler included. New water fountains and even a beautiful garden area. All these areas are opened in the morning and closed at night by the Parks Department. The areas are patrolled by the NYC POLICE at all times. The park and surrounding areas are safe and Aqueduct walk is now a place where i will bring my children to play. I recommend a visit.
This is a great place to come and enjoy fresh air. There are lots of trees which provide lots of shade to protect from the sun. The place is alway clean and have a lot of seating area. There are few tables as well. The tables have a checker's board.
The Bx3 bus stops infront of the walk way. The 4 train is about 10min away from this place. Also, Bronx Community College is infront of the walk way.
Beautiful place to chill out and look at the area . It's like walking down blocks in the middle lane. Cool
Nice park to walk through during the day and early evening but different during the late evening. Great path to jog on not sure if bike riding is allowed.
