NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — CBS2 is getting a look Thursday at an island oasis off Manhattan’s west coast.
Little Island at Pier 55 is a work of art, held above the Hudson River at 14th Street by 132 concrete tulip structures.
The 2.4-acre park was conceived and mostly paid for by a donation from billionaire Barry Diller and his wife, fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg.
