The courts pictured below are in Riverside Park north of 116th St. The season

is required, which may be obtained at the Arsenal,
located at Fifth Avenue and 64th St. Season permits for adults are $50,
Seniors $20 and Juniors $10. The permit office
is open 9-4 Monday-Friday and 9-12 Saturdays (Saturdays April, May and June only.) For more
