Arthur Kill Road

Our final jaunt in the 'September in Staten Island' covers the southern half of the island, holding the shore when possible to hit Blue Heron Park, Wolfe's Pond Park and Lemon Creek Wetlands Area, among others. A visit to Conference House Park signals the second half of the day, when we cut inland to visit the neighborhoods of Charleston, Woodrow and Annandale.

Our third week in the 'September in Staten Island' stays inland to catch some neighborhoods missed in the first two weeks. Dongan Hills, New Dorp and Great Kills are some of the areas touched on, with the turn at Arden Heights leading through to the College of Staten Island. We come out the otherside in Graniteville, sliding east across Castleton Corners before concluding in the Port Richmond region.

The first walk in our 'September in Staten Island' sticks mainly to the west, covering the shoreline up to Mariners Marsh Park before cutting through Arlington on the way to Travis-Chelsea. We take the turn at the Staten Island boat graveyard and head up through the middle of the borough, cutting through Latourette, Clove Lakes, and Silver Lake Park along the way.
