Zuccotti Park is a privately owned public plaza in Lower Manhattan's Financial District, known globally as the epicenter of the 2011 Occupy Wall Street protests. Today, it serves as a peaceful oasis with granite benches, mature trees, and seasonal plantings. Office workers and tourists alike gather here to relax, eat lunch, or reflect on the park's role in modern activism. The park's open design and central location make it a popular spot for events, from yoga classes to political rallies.
