##About The Park.
Gateway National Recreation Area overlaps two states and includes areas in three New York City boroughs: Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island. The history of the park's three units---Jamaica Bay, Sandy Hook and Staten Island---has been shaped by their access to New York Harbor. They also share the story of defending America's largest port from real and potential enemies.


##Notes
Download the app before you arrive. Cell service and Wi-Fi are limited at Gateway NRA.
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
