The United States Navy Yard, also known as the Brooklyn Navy Yard and the New York Naval Shipyard (NYNS), was a shipyard located in Brooklyn, New York, 1.7 miles (2.7 km) east of the Battery on the East River in Wallabout Basin, a semicircular bend of the river across from Corlear's Hook in Manhattan.
Today, The Battery is one of New York Cityâs oldest public parks. Located at the southern tip of Manhattan overlooking New York Harbor, The Battery is truly the cradle of New York history, the front lawn of Lower Manhattan, and the hub of harbor access and cultural tourism.
