Wolfe's Pond Park

The western, inland half consists mostly of ponds and woodlands, and the northwestern corner hugs Tottenville High School.

In both cases, this killed the freshwater fish and many of the red-eared slider turtles.

With this came the addition of the second playground on the east side of the park, as well as the sports areas, a new entrance to the beach, and a new monument to the Battle of the Bulge.

Every 4th of July, the park holds a fireworks show, with live entertainment and food venues.

This popular show draws hundreds of Staten Island residents from the South Shore and elsewhere every year.
