"Battery Park City and the Authority are not just about the buildings – it’s about the character of the community that has developed over time. Public space has had a new renaissance in New York City, but here in Battery Park City is where it started."
The Community Center at Stuyvesant High School is the result of a unique partnership created by the City of New York, Stuyvesant High School and the Battery Park City Authority. The Community Center offers recreation, classes and events for people of all ages and interests. The Community Center is open to the public evenings and weekends when school is not in session. Because the Center is shared by students, faculty and community members; certain safety regulations must be followed. Join us in making the Center a vital downtown resource. Battery Park City Parks Conservancy manages the Community Center at Stuyvesant High School. BPCA’s recreational, sports and arts programming in the parks, gardens and playing fields of Battery Park City has provided positive experiences for people of all ages and diverse interests. BPCA is similarly committed to making the Community Center at Stuyvesant High School a vital place for good health, life-long learning and pleasure. The Community Center offers expanded membership categories as well as additional fitness and recreational activities (led by sports, fitness and dance specialists) and seminars on subjects related to happy and healthy living. You can participate either through membership or on a class by class basis. BPCA is very interested in your ideas for new and improved Community Center programs.
