An interesting detail. I would not be certain that in acquiring the land that the NPS also acquired the roadway. But assuming that to be the case, it seems to me likely that NPS would be cooperative in providing transit access (at least to the extent that it does not impose a substantial direct monetary cost). Consider Riis Park itself, also controlled by the NPS. Cooperative measures facilitating public transportation have been undertaken there. (But also consider what the U.S. Supreme Court once explained, though as dicta: "It is not questioned that land within a state purchased by the United States as a mere proprietor, and not reserved or appropriated to any special purpose, may be liable to condemnation for streets or highways, like the land of other proprietors, under the rights of eminent domain." United States v. Chicago, 48 U.S. 185, 194 (1849); contra Utah Power & Light Co. v. United States, 243 U.S. 389, 403-05 (1917).)
