Grand Army Plaza

Framing the northern corner of Brooklyn’s Prospect Park, the oval-shaped Grand Army Plaza evokes a Parisian ambiance. Originally known as Prospect Park Plaza, this square features a 19th-century military arch and the art deco Bailey Fountain. Tree-dotted lawns and classical-style gazebos add to its charm. The plaza serves as the main entrance to the park and hosts the popular Saturday Greenmarket. Visitors can explore its historical and architectural elements while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere.
