City Island

City Island is a beach-like neighborhood of the Bronx, New York City.
The island served as the taping location for a number of Sesame Street segments during the eighth season. Most notably, Episode 0946 sees Maria, David, and Big Bird spending the day on the island visiting a friend of Maria's. Big Bird spends much of the time boating, while Maria and David go fishing.
Other material shot on the island include the songs "Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday," "Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow," "The Sun Shines," "Water Cantata," and the non-musical insert "Oscar Adams."
