Glen Island is a 105 (0.42 km²)acre park located in New Rochelle, New York, USA. Situated on Long Island Sound, the park offers a variety of recreational facilities. It is also the home of Glen Island Harbour Club, a county owned, privately operated catering facility. The park is connected to the mainland by a drawbridge built in the 1920s. One of the main features of the park is its pristine, crescent shaped beach offering access to Long Island Sound. Cannons, sculptures and castles with coursed rubble stone, arched openings and round towers still remain from the late 19th century when the park was initially developed as a summer resort.
