New Athletic Facility in Battery Park

Asphalt Green, a non-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting health through activity, sport and fitness, will open the doors of its new downtown location on June 15, leading to the launch of its summertime program offerings on June 24 and a Summer Day Camp program on June 27.

The new 52,000 square-foot Asphalt Green Battery Park facility is equipped with a lap pool, a teaching and exercise pool, a line of exercise equipment, a wood floor gymnasium, six multi-purpose studios and classrooms, a culinary center, and a 156-seat theater for lectures, film screenings and other activities.

The new Asphalt Green is accepting registrations for members of all ages (with discounts offered to Battery Park locals) and registrations for the summer camp for 4-13 year-olds, which offer a range of classes from the athletic to the artistic. Looking past the summer term, an after-school fall term will begin with similar programming on September 7th.

"Belonging to Asphalt Green Battery Park City is more than gaining access to a great facility; it's about enriching health and lives" said Andrew J. Nussbaum, Chairman of Asphalt Green's Board of Directors. "Asphalt Green Battery Park City will continue our great tradition of partnering with respected local organizations to deliver premier cultural and sports programs. We are ready to open our doors and welcome the community."
