Brownsville Recreation Center

Brownsville Recreation Center

1555 Linden Blvd
(at Christopher Street)

This recreation center, known initially as the Brownsville Boys’ Club, first opened in 1953, as a one-room clubhouse. Through vigorous leadership, unceasing effort, and the public-spirited generosity of many sponsors, the Center went through major expansion and became a Parks Department Facility in 1955, with a multitude of diverse facilities, including a stage, indoor pool, and industrial kitchen. Hundreds of youth and adults flock to Brownsville Recreation Center each day.
