About Parks
Parks & Recreation is a public
agency of 2,200 people that care for over 28,000 acres
of parkland. Parks' principal mission is to keep the
parks, playgrounds, and sitting areas of New York
City clean and safe, while also developing the City's
recreational opportunities by offering quality facilities,
programs, and events to meet the needs of all New
Yorkers.
In
addition to maintaining 13% of New York City's land,
Parks is also the City's leading programmer of cultural,
athletic and social activities, including nature walks,
concerts, learn-to-swim classes, sports clinics, historic
house tours, and much more.
In the summer, the agency organizes
free carnivals and concerts, and sends mobile recreation
vans to travel throughout the five boroughs, providing
free rental equipment for skating, baseball, and miniature
golf.
The
Parks Commissioner appoints Deputy Commissioners,
Borough Commissioners, and Assistant Commissioners
who are responsible for managing the agency's divisions.
These senior officials supervise the work of Parks
employees and work with elected officials to complete
capital improvements for parks, playgrounds, and recreation
centers. They also work with the private sector to
sponsor free public events and get the community involved
in Parks through volunteer initiatives and educational
and athletic programming in recreation and nature
centers. In addition, they prepare Parks' budget and
monitor the work of Parks' ice-skating rinks, golf
courses and other concessions.
