Canarsie Pol

Canarsie Pol is an uninhabited island south of Canarsie, Brooklyn in Jamaica Bay, New York City.

It is part of Gateway National Recreation Area.

[1] Canarsie Pol is an irregular oval of about 300 acres (120 ha) (17,050,000 square feet (1,584,000 m2)).

On 1910 maps, the island was originally much smaller; however, when nearby waterways were dredged to expand them for improved navigation, the sand and soil were piled on Canarsie Pol.
