John Jay Park

Details

About

A free, first-come-first-served outdoor court in John Jay Park on Manhattan's Upper East Side, one of the few no-cost tennis spots left on the island. It's a low-key, walk-up option for casual daytime games — no permit or reservation required.

Courts & conditions

The court has a hard (asphalt) surface and is outdoors, open to the elements. It's unfenced, so balls that go astray — including winners — can end up some distance away.

Good to know

This court has no fence around it, so players should be prepared to retrieve balls that go astray, including winners. Play is free and first-come, first-served — just walk up, no booking needed. Water fountains and restrooms are available nearby.
