As of today the bowl is still under construction. Yes, there are scooter kids and a lot of bikes at times but you have to share the space. Definitely one of the better skate parks in the city.

They are an incredible organization that hosts adaptive sporting events for those with disabilities. Pier 62 Skate Park is pretty spectacular, featuring several massive skate bowls and a multitude ramps of while providing awesome views of the hudson. Even if you don't skate or have the opportunity to volunteer at a similar event, this park is perfect for people watching and just taking in the action. It was my first time here but definitely won't be my last!

I'm definitely going back to try to get more photos. Skateboarding action photos are fun. It's fun to watch. Can you believe when I was in middle school and high school I had a skateboard. My first one was handmade out of wood using roller skate wheels. Am I Old or what!? I recommend you bring your skateboard and go to Pier 62 to have fun.

What do I know about skate parks, not much, but I know a lil bit…read more This skate park is situated underneath the Manhattan Bridge and is across from the water (beautiful view in my opinion). The hours are from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm. *Whether you came to play, support, or jeer at the people skating better than you, there are plenty of spots/benches to rest your feet inside the park. First thing I noticed was that there is more space for the skaters and bmxers than the Bay Ridge skate park (awesome sauce). I saw one dude on rollerblades, umm yeah but I digress haha. Although it seems crowded, the space seems optimal for noobs and intermediate skaters. The concrete was smooth and there are plenty of spots (rails) to do your ollies, grinds, kickflips, and whatnots (not a real skater lingo). I will definitely take my bro here and see what he has to say. Kudos to NYC Parks & Recreation.

Micro mini is great for learning all the tricks you can conceive but it doesn't translate to the bigger ramp at all, that thing is verty and scary compared to the shallow side of the pool in Chelsea.

Unfortunately the current management is lax and doesn't supervise the park. So unless a parent steps up to direct kids, a lot of children get into accidents. The owner has an anger problem. He loves to start arguments and pick fights with people. He seems to enjoy belittling people and bragging about how much money he spends. Because he is often smoking pot in his trailer, he sometimes yells at people using his trailer's PA system. As of writing, the photos shown on this yelp page are inaccurate. The track was modified 3 years ago, and is about 2/3 the size of what the first few photos show. There is no longer any artwork on the track.

Everyday I spend time here I understand why we have so many issues in this world. The amount of…read morepeople that come here and try to make trouble was shocking but NY has changed. Signs everywhere saying you need to pay and have a helmet. I have come here dozens of times and shocked by people's behavior and then reactions when they get screamed at. People try to sue these types of places weekly and you wonder why they flop out when you walk right by a large sign...! The dirt park is pretty intense and it's rad to watch the guys shred. The paved pump tracks are awesome for all levels of biker and skater. I got to watch some 3-6 year old shred. Personally can spend a couple hours there easily and if it's slow all day as lines are endless. Sign a waiver and pay 5$ .... a coffee is more. I couldn't believe it was so cheap. They have board and bike rentals again 5$ per hr.

It starts getting crowded around 4-7 pm in the spring and summer. There's lots of bikers and skateboards and a few scooters. It can get rowdy and accidents do happen so so wear a helmet and pads! The park can be divided into two sections- One side is spacious with 45 degree ramps, concave ramps, and such. The other side is steeper - a half pipe sort of thing. Forgive my bad terminology - lol.

I meandered around several of the paths, perhaps lacking one. They offer accessible options as well as staired. I found both the amphitheatre which hosts ticketed events and the smaller theater in the Glade by the free public (and cool!) bathroom. I spent perhaps a half hour walking around. I might have sought out the last path and enjoyed some of the interactive art more if it weren't so hot that day.
