World's Fair Playground

“Great playground for neighborhood kids. This World’s Fair Playground offers swings for both toddlers and older children, monkey bars, slides & water sprinklers. For teens & adults a gymnastics bar, body lifting bars, sit up bench, basketball court, handball court, tennis court, and a brand new track field with a section for volleyball (bring your own net). The new track field is a favorite amongst people of all ages who need to get out, stretch their legs and walk a couple of laps every day. Sometimes you’ll find people rollerblading here or younger kids riding their bikes here on the tracks. There are some shaded areas for bench seatings and water fountains for refilling water bottles. Bathrooms are available for men and four women but tends to close around 5 PM. This Playground is well kept. There is also a ramp near the track field that crosses the Grand Central Highway to Flushing Meadows Corona Park. However, the ramp is currently closed due to construction. There is another ramp that goes across Grand Central Parkway into Flushing Meadows Corona Park. It is near the Under Bridge Dog Run on 64th Ave. and Grand Central Parkway local road.”

“My family and I have been to this place and that it was a nice sunny day and that there were many people there playing basketball, handball, and many other things. Also, there were birds like pigeons there looking for things to eat, and that people were sitting on the benches.”
