FORT GREENE — Fort Greene Park turned into a magical winter wonderland during this weekend’s blizzard, inspiring dance parties, staircase snowboarding and pizza-shaped sleds.
The park’s four main hills and giant triple staircase morphed into sweet slopes for residents after they were covered in more than two feet of snow.
