Pelham Bay Park and Orchard Beach - Pelham Bay Park is the largest park in New York City, and it's been part of Bronx life for a long time. There are wooded trails for hiking, water for picnicking, and at Orchard Beach, a classic slice of New York summer. Together, they're a reminder of how much public green space has shaped life in the borough over the decades. What is the largest park where you live (please put in comments)? Do you like to go to the beach?
