Fordham’s Sculpture Walk

Fordham’s Sculpture Walk offers a space where children can run between art and trees without worrying about traffic interrupting the moment. Metal and stone pieces stand along wide paths, letting small visitors circle back or dart ahead while adults keep pace. The park handles crowds at weekend soccer games and weekday picnics with equal ease, making it a reliable stop whether you’re passing through or planning to linger.

Head to 2580 Jerome Avenue, New York, NY 10064 (between Fordham Road and Kingsbridge Terrace) to find the entrance just south of the elevated Metro-North tracks. Inside the 3.5-acre loop, benches line the route on both sides, and the occasional low wall doubles as seating for exhausted parents and curious kids. Light posts mark the route in the evening, so you can time your walk without guessing when dusk will arrive.

Call 718-561-4154 to confirm the closest subway exit, then grab the directions you need from the map for the smoothest approach.
