Indoor recreation center offering fitness classes, yoga, and pickleball courts. Families appreciate the clean facilities and ample parking, though staff experiences can vary.
So glad I joined the Fitness and yoga classes with Rika since July 2025. The experience is fantastic, she is very professional and her Fitness is perfect for people of all age, recently we had a lot of fun bringing our costumes last Friday Oct. 31st, they even gave away prizes, specially to Bumble Queen Bee🐝 and the Lady Unicorn🦄 so fun to share with this community, looking forward for the Christmas event yay🎄😍🥳 Hope to exercise for many years to come, love my membership, Thanks NYC Parks🙌🤗🙋♀️🎉🎉🎉
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best suited for families seeking diverse indoor activities including fitness classes and pickleball. The facility offers good value with clean spaces and ample parking, but parents should be aware of reported safety incidents and inconsistent staff interactions.

“I used to work out here. If you're a woman, I recommend having a male companion. I've even been followed. I called the police back then. They turned out to be a group. Their phones had guides on how to take photos to attract the opposite sex!!!”
