LaGuardia Landing Lights Park

LaGuardia Landing Lights Park
New York, New York (NY), US
This unconventional park was created in 1958 when the Port Authority surrendered 9 parcels of land to the City for park purposes. They are situated in lots that follow the flight path to the airport. Their placement is mandated by FAA regulations, which require a swath of clear land in approaches leading up to airport runways.
