Callahan-Kelly Playground — Attraction in New York

Big shout out to Tyler 🤜🏾🤛🏻who addressed me with the coolest vibes! And to the two other homies who helped me manage my stuff and had a brief conversation 🗣️with me.

🛼Ranking Level of skate park: Intermediate - Advanced

Banks -There are a lot of banks with coping but a few without coping. Great to work on stalls, & grinds! There are banks that are as low as approximately 3 feet and then some that are higher. Each has at least one deep pocket which is great to work on carving. ⚠️There is one advanced level bank that has a very steep drop in with a rectangular metal edge but has an UNeven surface towards the mid-end of it. It’s probably a good 8 feet in height. Upon my next visit, I will try it out! (Check photo)

Ledges - There are 3 ledges there each ranking from beginner, intermediate and advanced. The advanced ledge is attached to the ramp closer to the L train entrance/exit. (Measurements of some of the ledges are posted.) Great for jumping on and off into the ramp.

🌋Volcano - There is one volcano and it is about 2 feet in height and not very sloped so it is perfect for practicing fakies and doing other stunts. The low height and not so deep slope leaves great room for a quick reset into multiple tricks.

🔘Circular disc - Great to work on curved edges. Since the diameter is very wide and large, multiple folks can work on it all at once. It is probably only a foot in height. Not sure how else to use it. 🤷🏾‍♀️

🧱Rectangular block - There is a rectangular block where one can work on dropping down from the tallest bank and then jumping on the block to grind.

Overall - IF you’re working on grinds, stalls and carves on an early intermediate level this is a great park to get your practice in and take your level up to advance. However, if you’re a beginner there are not many beginner friendly obstacles here. Nevertheless, beginners should still check out the park and and challenge themselves. Vibes are are very cool there btw. But I highly recommend you have someone to keep their eyes on your bags 🧳 or any stuff that you bring. Either that or leave it in your car. Not necessarily due to the skaters but to the many passer-byers heading to and fro from the...

Affectionately known to local residents in Brooklyn as, KELLY PARK, It is a favorite for teenagers, children and adults alike. With jungle gyms for the children, basketball and handball courts for the teens and young adults, and picnic tables where many adults come to just sit and relax in the energetic environment to watch their children, or to have a cup of coffee or lunch from one of the many restaurants and eateries around the park. Many workout and exercise enthusiasts also frequent the park, using the jungle gym for pullups and dips and doing pusups on the rubberized mats that cover the play area. Located at the intersection of Fulton St and Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn, NY, just a short walk to Broadway Junction, a block away, and several bus stops are also located nearby making it easily accessible to neighborhood residents. I lived across the street from this park for 4 years. Host to many family picnics and outings as well as summer basketball tournaments organized by neighborhood residents. WE LOVE YOU...

The playground is one of the biggest around here.

It always clean as the Parks dept has a place there.

The bathrooms are open from dawn to dusk, you may have to bring some tissue, but the few times that I went in the bathroom was decent and there was tissue.

Its a park, at times its a little packed.

Overall nice place for the kids and a place were you can read a book and pretty much be left alone.

No other attactions in area.
