tips for visiting Poughkeepsie

this is a former city run skatepark. The skate community took over its maintenence when the city no longer wanted to maintain it. Treat the park with respect and be kind to the regulars -they are the ones that are keeping it going
because this is a DIY, the ramps sometimes get beat up and it takes while before it is addressed. Proceed with caution and avoid elements that look like they can be damaged to stay safe, and not make it worse.
This park is right on the water, so it is often a decent bit colder there than it would be otherwise, bring a sweater or jacket.
