‘There is no way to repair it’ NYC Parks seeks funding for Van Cortlandt Park Stadium demolition 

The deteriorating Van Cortlandt Park Stadium has reached a point where it can no longer be repaired and will require significant funding for demolition, according to officials from the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, who returned to Community Board 8 on the results of a structural assessment.

“There is no way to repair it,” said Maralisa Wise, director of architecture for NYC Parks, told board members during the Parks and Recreation Committee’s final meeting before its summer recess.
