Park Drive Repaving: Starting Wednesday, March 15, the Park Drive will be repaved in phases from Park Circle to Grand Army Plaza on weeknight overnight hours (8 pm-4 am). Portions of the Park Drive will have a rough surface on some weekdays: cyclists are advised to take alternate routes, including along protected bicycle lanes along the Parkside Avenue, Flatbush Avenue and Prospect Park West perimeters. Visit the NYCDOT website for updates.
The NYCRUNS Brooklyn Marathon follows the legacy of a great institution, the New York City Marathon. Originally run entirely in Central Park, the NYC Marathon has become the largest marathon in the world. This event offers an alternative—a small, community-focused event confined to the 3.33-mile loop around Prospect Park. Register for this event.
