Purslane at the Boathouse in Prospect Park

The Boathouse is an iconic venue overlooking the Lullwater in the heart of Prospect Park. The park itself is one of Brooklyn’s most treasured destinations and a city landmark. With its Beaux-Arts style, white terra-cotta façade, and French doors opening out to a terrace overlooking the lake, the Boathouse enhances the natural beauty of the park, facing west to capture sunsets over the lake.

Why We’re Committed to Zero-Waste and Carbon-Neutral Events

As a hospitality organization, we are committed to service on every level. This extends beyond the day of the events we create and into considerations of how our decisions affect our larger community — the attendees, the staff, the farmers growing the food, the neighborhood where the event is held. When we consider the true meaning of service, we know that it extends beyond creating an amazing event to careful consideration of how we impact the environment and the future of this planet.
