🏀 Courts, Swings and a Dog Run

Basketball courts refreshed by MoMA PS1 give Murray Playground, a calm Long Island City playground, an artful edge. Industrial design runs through the park, and summer sprinklers add a cool break on hot afternoons. Bring a ball, or pack lunch and claim one of the many benches along the walkways.

Families will find dedicated play areas for toddlers, baby swings, and climbing ropes for a bigger challenge. An enclosed dog run makes it a stop for pet owners too, and each part of the park gives a different crew its own corner.

Murray Playground opens daily from 6 AM to 9 PM. Drinking fountains, public restrooms, and free city wifi round out the amenities, which makes an early morning outing or an afternoon pause in this Queens park easy to plan.
