Know Your (Confusing) New York City Islands

If you’re like us, you might have a hard time remembering whether it’s Roosevelt or Randall’s Island that has all the sports fields, or which island Typhoid Mary was imprisoned on, or basically anything else about NYC’s many confusing islands.  This happens to us far too often, so we decided a cheat sheet was in order. Below you’ll find a teeny guide to some of the most interesting and talked about islands in the city.

I’m planning a 15-mile run this weekend and am thinking of running over to Randall’s Island, but then I couldn’t remember if it was Randall’s or Roosevelt island that I actually wanted to go to…this is very helpful for other confused New Yorkers!
