NEW YORK CITY—Scheduled to open this spring, the developer GID's massive Waterline Square in Manhattan's Upper West Side will feature three residential towers. With Hudson River views, located on Riverside Boulevard from W. 59th to W. 61st streets, the 2.1 million square-foot, luxury condominium project is now also offering a half-pipe skate park. It's the first one (at least that GlobeSt.com has heard about) to be built in a New York City residential development.
The skate park is 42-feet long and four feet high, with a 10-foot mini ramp, ready to amp up speed and elevation. It's designed by the award-winning SITE Design Group, who is behind the skateboarding facility at Stars and Stripes Park near Lake Hefner in Oklahoma City, OK and the Linda Vista Skatepark in San Diego, CA.
