| Page Views: 171 Last Visit to Staten Island: September, 2004 I Live Here | Picturesque Mount Loretto Park by adventerrtravel22 - last update: Oct 1, 2004 |
Can be seen from Hylan Blvd. A Classic style church. |
|  | Entrance to the Park is on the SouthEastern side of Hylan Blvd. Walk down the car path towards the water and make a left at the fork in the road. |
Cliffs just after the fork, they'll be 20-30 foot cliffs looking off into Raritan Bay towards New Jersey. A Spetacular scene. |  | |
|  | Clean water on Staten Island. Yes, you can see the the bottom of the water. In this pic you can see the sand and rocks below. This was taken from above the Cliffs. |
The Lighthouse as you make your way up the hill you'll see plenty of birds that nest in the tall grass and then the lighthouse on top of the hill. |  | |
| Picket Fence around LightHouse |
|  | Rosary Beads Don't know who put these Rosary beads on almost all the pickets of the fence surrounding the lighthouse. This property was once owned by the Church, they used it as a orphanage. This is why there are so many rosary beads. It's almost like a religious shrine, very peaceful. |
Great view It kinda reminds me of Ireland. You can see a good distance, nothing but trees, bushes and landscape with the church in the distance. This picture was taken from atop the hill near the lighthouse. You can see cars running along Hylan Blvd. if you look close enough. |  | |
|  | Many ponds in the area if you explore enough you'll see plenty of ponds. Stay on the trails. There are small streams that run thru the grass and you might fall into one. Also, many birds nest in the tall grass and you'll disturb their habitat. |
