An Upper West Side Playground Built For All Abilities

An Upper West Side playground on Amsterdam Avenue, with courts, all abilities play areas, and a spray shower.

Bring a ball and the kids.

🏀 Room For Every Ability

Bring a basketball, bring the kids, or make room for a workout. Bloomingdale Playground puts those plans together on the Upper West Side, with courts, all abilities play areas, and a spray shower for cooling off. The mix gives a family outing more than one activity to choose from without leaving the park.

There is a neighborhood story here, too. Before the 1997 renaming, the space was known as P.S. 145 Playground. Its new name honors the history of the surrounding neighborhood. A 2018 overhaul through the Community Parks Initiative refreshed the layout with paths, benches, and plantings, and that redesign is what makes the site work for every ability.

This Upper West Side playground at 905 Amsterdam Avenue opens from 7 AM to 6 PM daily.
