This playground is named after the nearby public school, designated P.S. 1. The school is named for Alfred Emanuel Smith (1873-1944), who grew-up on nearby Oliver Street and rose to be the governor of New York State. Smith carried the spirit of his Lower East Side youth into all of his political work, using his skills to tirelessly campaign for wide-reaching, progressive social reform.

In 2018, the playground underwent reconstruction  to increase the accessibility and quality of parks throughout the five boroughs. This project reconstructed the basketball courts, paths, benches, spray shower, plantings, play equipment, and adult fitness equipment.

Fifty years later the Society discontinued use of the athletic fields and offered the parcel for sale. Bids were received from private developers, they accepted the city’s offer which guaranteed the continued recreational use of the property, the present day Friends Field.

The park’s popular landmark and namesake was the natural, spring-fed Linden Lake. As the population grew, ice-skating became a popular winter activity. It has stood out as a green square block on maps since the village of West Flushing was first mapped out in 1853, long before the village became neighborhood known as Corona.

Brooklyn

The origin of this park’s name is somewhat unclear. There are two possibilities: the name might have been chosen due to the site’s proximity to Washington Cemetery; or it is possible that this property is somehow named for the neighborhood of Gravesend, which today lies more than a mile to the south,

Gravesend was the first English settlement in New York, founded by Lady Deborah Moody (c.1583-1659) in 1645. The solitary English town developed an air of self-sufficiency that lasted until 1894 when it was finally annexed by the City of Brooklyn. 

Slope Park

Slope Park

Park Slope, Brooklyn

The neighborhood of Park Slope derives its name from its proximity to Prospect Park and the gradual topographical incline from the Gowanus Canal to the park. First inhabited by the Canarsee Indians, the neighborhood now known as Park Slope was colonized by Dutch farmers in the 1660s. During the Revolutionary War (1775-1783), the area became the site of a brief, explosive moment, in what is known as the Battle of Brooklyn, or the Battle of Long Island. On August 27, 1776, an outnumbered American regiment faced approximately 4,000 British soldiers at Battle Pass, a point now contained within Prospect Park.

WILLIAMSBURG

Inspired by artist Mark Reigelman’s interpretation of the historic Domino Sugar Factory, Landscape Structures designed it into playable reality. An intricate web of belting, nets and climbers lets kids scramble from the sugar shack up to the masher tower and over to the centrifuge. Stainless steel slides look just like industrial pipes. Casts of original factory valves are scattered throughout. And some of the wood was reclaimed from the original sugar shack, giving kids a tactile connection to history.
