Heckscher Ballfields

Hundreds of baseball and softball games are played each season at the six fields that make up the Heckscher Ballfields.

Thanks to the Conservancy’s restoration in 2006, the playing fields are better than ever. They feature new natural turf outfields, clay infields, and new drainage and irrigation systems.

Opening and closing days will be posted. Ballfields may be closed for maintenance or when wet.

Permits:
Issued to leagues, teams, and other groups from mid-April through mid-September by the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation.
