About the venue

John Jay Park on Manhattan’s Upper East Side has one unfenced outdoor asphalt tennis court in NYC Parks’ current athletic-facility inventory. Some older directories listed two; the current mapped inventory supports one.

On court

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.

Before you go

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.

Hours

Daily: 7:00 AM – 10:00 PM

A directory lists 07:00–22:00 year-round, but the court is described as unlit; confirm usable daylight hours. Hours from Google Maps (these are the park's hours); the venue's own page may state different court hours.
