Before renovations began in 2007, the six piers that are now part of the Park made up a port that had been in operation since 1642. The B61 and B63 buses serve the section of the Park near the Pier 5 fields, as does the Borough Hall train station (2/3/4/5 trains). Pier 6, just south of Pier 5 is a landing for the NYC Ferry’s South Brooklyn Route.
