NYC PARKS DEPT.

Dear Commissioner,

It is cold outside and the rumor has it that the Hudson is starting to freeze over. Will New Yorkers be able to ice skate on its surface this winter?


Yours in God,
Joam

RESPONSE
Dear Joam,

Thank you for your email inquiry on ice skating on the Hudson.

Unfortunately, We have not heard of any ice skating taking place in the near future at the Hudson. It doesn’t appear possible given that the Hudson is a river in constant motion. You may want to contact the Hudson River Park Trust at 212-627-2020 as they may have information pertaining to centers along the Hudson where you may ice skate or visit our Parks website at www.nyc.gov/parks for ice skating locations within Parks’ jurisdiction.

Thank you for your interest in Parks.

Sincerely,
Angie XXXX
Assistant to the Manhattan Borough Commissio
