About the venue

Pier 42 is a public outdoor tennis spot along the East River Greenway in New York, part of the NYC Parks courts network. It's a casual spot for a straightforward game, right on the waterfront.

On court

Four outdoor hard courts, first-come-first-served with no advance reservations. One recent reviewer noted the asphalt surface has some cracks and isn't a standard hard-court finish.

Before you go

Access is walk-in only — there's no online booking for specific court times.

Hours

Daily: from 8:00 AM until sunset

Closing time follows sunset and changes through the year.
