We need more playing spaces and fields for kids in Manhattan.

So important for downtown community to have fields for our youth to play on. Outdoor sports essential to their physical, mental and emotional futures.

There are so few full-size fields the community desperately needs more

NYC simply doesn't have enough playing fields. The lack of available green space drives recreational players to encroach on city lawn and playground areas. More open green space benefits us all.

My kids have grown up playing soccer at Pier 40. It's home away from home for our family among so many others. Please protect field space for future generations. Thank you.

We need this space for youth athletes, given the desperate need to renovate Pier 40 and lack of public field space. Please consider!

When my daughter was young pier 40 provided a space to play soocer. It’s imperative that pier 40 be renovated and that alternative sites be made available during that renovation. As parents we owe it to our kids to provide for their physical wellbeing.

Please include soccer fields in the plan for this park! Our kids need more sports fields in the neighborhood. My son has to sometimes go an hour into Brooklyn or NJ for his league to find fields! Thank you!!

Outdoor space dedicated to children’s sports helps combat childhood obesity.

Exercise and good activities helps develop the body and mind. What better way than a well made park with various activities.

Spaces for kids to play are really in short supply. We desperately need this additional field.

The whole city needs these fields! We are in Brooklyn but play in Downtown Manhattan all the time. Also when there are no fields here it puts more pressure on other fields all over the 5 boros, where there are also not enough fields!

Field space is imperative for healthy families living in Lower Manhattan. Please make this a priority in your planning!!

This is much needed. So many of our young children are growing up playing soccer in downtown Manhattan and Pier 40 is in terrible shape
