The novel 11-acre destination, dubbed the Davis Center at the Harlem Meer, will be home to the eighth largest swimming pool in New York City during the summer and an ice skating rink in the winter.
The magnitude of the plans cannot be overstated, especially since, as reported by the New York Times, "it is [...] one of the most significant recent public projects aimed at serving New Yorkers in the largely low-income communities surrounding the northern end of the park."
According to Gothamist, the center "will feature a green roof and new, accessible pedestrian walkways that tie [it] to the natural environment of the park."
In terms of operations, the Central Park Conservancy will take over supervision from the Trump Organization, responsible for managing the destination before it officially closed.
