The northern section of the Parade Ground has been reconstructed and the ball fields are open. The Van Cortlandt Stadium field was also reconstructed and reopened. A new synthetic turf field for soccer and football has been installed in the stadium. The parade grounds will have cricket fields, soccer fields, and baseball fields with in-ground irrigation. A portion of the cross country running track will be resurfaced and realigned. This project will be built in two phases to allow the public use of some fields during construction.
