"Battery Park City and the Authority are not just about the buildings – it’s about the character of the community that has developed over time. Public space has had a new renaissance in New York City, but here in Battery Park City is where it started."

TIP OFF! West Thames Basketball Courts Open for Play

UPDATE: Final surface painting is now complete, and the West Thames Basketball Courts re-opened to the community on May 20.

Play ball! As part of the deconstruction of the old Rector Street Bridge and its attendant west side stairs and ramp, public space for the Battery Park City community has been increased via expansion of the Liberty Community Gardens and adjacent basketball courts.

The final portion of this project is the painting and striping of the court surface, currently scheduled to begin the end of this week. This work will necessitate closing of the courts and take (weather permitting) roughly two weeks to complete.

In the interim, as of Friday, May 7 the nets have been installed and the courts are available for play. Get out there and enjoy!
