DAVIS CENTER AT CENTRAL PARK GRAND OPENING, NYC

The Davis Center, a $160 million investment in Central Park’s north end, will reconnect the Harlem Meer and its surrounding communities with the rest of Central Park, and will provide year-round community access for the first time, through an innovative design for an alternating swimming pool, ice rink and public green, in addition to a re-envisioned building that integrates the landscapes with new amenity space and public restrooms.

The Davis Center will offer a diverse range of majority free and low-cost programming throughout the year, operated both by the Conservancy and other community focused non-profit organizations that will utilize space at the Davis Center. Programming is generously funded by lead donors JPMorganChase, Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF), Philip & Alicia Hammarskjold, and Paula and Jeffrey Gural.
