12 Pickleball Courts To Open Beneath The Brooklyn Bridge
CityPickle, known for transforming Central Park’s Wollman Rink into a Pickleball paradise, is bringing more pickleball playtime underneath the Brooklyn Bridge.
The area, better known as Anchorage Plaza, will receive a much needed revitalization with 12 pickleball courts, after gaining approval from the NYC Parks Department.
And if you never hopped on the pickleball trend, have no fear! CityPickle’s proposal promises a slew of other amenities and open public space, in addition to the courts. These include a dog run, tree nursery, food trucks, ping pong area and more.
The 12 courts will be open for rentals, open play, clinics and leagues, as shared in the Request For Proposals.
According to Brooklyn Eagle, the project will require a minimum $2 million investment from CityPickle to carry out the proper draining and leveling of the area.
Though the proposal was met with much enthusiasm, license negotiations have yet to be finalized. However, if all goes to plan, construction at Anchorage Plaza would begin in the next few months to open the revived area to the public in spring 2025.
