playgrounds for all ages and abilities
When children age out of playgrounds in the city, there are extremely limited options for play and physical engagement. The open land under the various ramps of the Brooklyn Bridge allow for rain and snow protected areas that can be used flexibly for a variety of activities, limited only by the imagination.

We need recreation space that engages people of all ages and abilities. The global pandemic has focused attention on the necessity for safe outdoor exercise options. We will integrate flexible equipment that will be accessible, address a variety of capabilities, strengths, sizes and ages. A significant portion of our immediate population is elderly and mobility-challenged - our playgrounds should be responsive to our community's specific needs.
There are many schools in the area, all of whom have need for exterior recreation space.
The Banks already has basketball courts (closed now for over a decade) and open space suitable for a variety of sports and activities.
Some of that space could be reserved for students during school hours to address this community need.
