Incredible news for Brooklyn tennis players: Ten weeks after a group of regulars at the McCarren Park tennis courts got together to finance and resurface one of the long-neglected courts, American Express has stepped up to redo the other six! “As part of the Fresh Courts program, the remaining courts will be completely resurfaced and renovated, and upon project completion, McCarren Park will contain six full-sized, 78-foot courts, and two permanent 36-foot courts for the QuickStart play format,” says the press release. Congrats to the McCarren Tennis non-profit that got this done.
