About
A big free public park facility right on the East River, with sweeping views of the Williamsburg Bridge and Brooklyn skyline. Twelve outdoor hard courts draw a steady crowd of local New Yorkers on evenings and weekends — expect to wait for a court at peak times.
Courts & conditions
12 outdoor hard courts with lights for evening play. Courts are first come, first served — no permit needed.
Good to know
Free to play, walk-in only (no reservations, no permit required). Open daily 7:00 AM–8:00 PM. The park has been under construction, with reviewers noting portable restrooms in place of full facilities and only some water fountains working — a water fountain is nearby.
