Yellowstone Park

Yellowstone Park (Queens)

Yellowstone Park is a small municipal park in Forest Hills, a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Queens. The park is bounded by Yellowstone Boulevard, 68th Avenue, and 68th Road. Land for the park was acquired by the city in 1964 with the park opening to the public on May 27, 1968. The park contains Basketball courts, restrooms, playgrounds, and a dog-friendly area. The park's playground is named after City Council member Arthur Katzman, who advocated for construction of a park on the site.

Yellowstone National Park

Yellowstone National Park is a national park of the United States located mainly in the northwest corner of the state of Wyoming, with small portions extending into Montana and Idaho. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features, especially the Old Faithful geyser, one of its most popular. While it represents many types of biomes, subalpine forest is the most abundant. It is part of the South Central Rockies forests ecoregion.

Park

A park is an area of natural, semi-natural or planted space set aside for human enjoyment and recreation or for the protection of wildlife or natural habitats. Urban parks are green spaces set aside for recreation inside towns and cities. National parks and country parks are green spaces used for recreation in the countryside. State parks and provincial parks are administered by sub-national government states and agencies. Parks may consist of grassy areas, rocks, soil and trees, but may also contain buildings and other artifacts such as monuments, fountains or playground structures. Many parks have fields for playing sports such as baseball and football, and paved areas for games such as basketball. Many parks have trails for walking, biking and other activities. Some parks are built adjacent to bodies of water or watercourses and may comprise a beach or boat dock area. Urban parks often have benches for sitting and may contain picnic tables and barbecue grills.
