The Pond at Bryant Park
Opened October 26, 2007 through Mid January, 2008

We passed by on a Sunday afternoon for the first time once and oh what a treat to finally see an actual skating rink in midtown Manhattan! We'd encircled the rink a coupla of times so's to get a better perspective and although the rink is a tad bit smaller than New York City's others it was surely big enough for all to enjoy. So even if you're not aiming to go skating it might behoove you to pass by just the same if you're in the area.

Look below for rates and hours.
