 Recreation Centers

Since 1910, the City of New York/Parks & Recreation has provided the most affordable and extensive network of recreational services throughout New York City. Our Recreation Facilities (Recreation Centers, Community Centers, Field Houses, and Nature Centers) offer services such as indoor pools, weight rooms, basketball courts, dance studios, boxing rings, art studios, game rooms, and libraries.

All of our Recreation Facilities offer a wide range of programs for all ages, such as aerobics, dancing, computer classes, and art. Most of our programs are free or available at a modest cost, and all are open to the general public. Each facility is equipped with a professional staff who provide organized and free-play activities that are safe, fun, and educational.

Know Before You Go

This project will reconstruct Owen Dolen Park to include a more defined plaza area and enhanced green spaces. Sidewalks, paths, fencing, stairs, and lighting will be improved. The spire at the upper Terrace will be removed to open site lines into the park. The Recreation Center will remain open to the public during this period although occasional use restrictions may apply. Please pardon our appearance.
Anticipated Completion: Winter 2013
