The Davis Center at Harlem Meer in Central Park recently opened, introducing new recreational facilities and programs aimed at families and the community. This $160 million initiative over seven years focused on making the park inclusive and welcoming. Major features include a versatile pool that becomes an ice rink, the Harlem Oval for various activities, and numerous free or low-cost events. Funded by a mix of public and private sources, the center showcases collaborative efforts to engage local residents, reinforcing the park's connection to the Harlem community.
With years of planning behind it, the goal was to make the park more accessible and welcoming to everyone. The Davis Center aims to bring people together through nature, fun activities, and community.
This re-imagined space reconnects the Harlem community with this beloved park while providing a vibrant, year-round hub for recreation and education... the Davis Center now stands as an example of community-powered progress.
