Battery Park City Ball Fields
Nestled amidst the towering skyscrapers of Lower Manhattan, the Battery Park City ball fields address the critical need for athletic spaces in a densely populated urban environment. Recognizing the site's limited sunlight and high demand, a sustainable synthetic turf solution was implemented. Committed to Battery Park City's green infrastructure and long-term sustainability goals, the design features a fully recyclable turf system and a plant-based infill mixture. Beneath the surface, a robust stormwater retention system manages runoff. The park accommodates two little league baseball fields and a full-size soccer field, creating a highly sustainable and versatile athletic complex in the heart of New York City.
