Update: A commenter correctly points out this is likely Robert Moses State Park. A quick Google Earth check confirms this.

Via State Operations Director Howard Glaser, here’s a stunning photo of what’s left of Long Island’s Robert Moses State Park post-Hurricane Sandy.

When he tweeted the original photo, Glaser incorrectly ID’d it as Jones Beach in Nassau County. It is an easy mistake to make, given that both have the obelisk and large roundabout.

“here is no beach left at Jones Beach,” he wrote when he tweeted the picture, which appears to have been taken during the helicopter tour of the area.

Glaser is a prolific keeper of his twitter account and has been sending out surreal images of the devastation surrounding New York City. He’s very much worth a follow.
