Bayswater Park

Welcome to Bayswater Park located in the Far Rockaway section of Queens, New York. This park exists largely due to the efforts of a man named Jules Michaelis, an active local resident who spent over a decade and a half as President of the Wavecrest Civic Association. The picnic area at Bayswater Park has grills and all of the athletic courts have lights.
