About

Walter Gladwin Park is centrally located in the Bronx, and has been the heart of the Bronx since its founding. Once the home of Bronx Borough Hall, this large 15-acre park offers a variety of recreational opportunities, with basketball courts, handball courts, a ballfield, and large lush lawns with walking paths. The eastern half of the park is hilly, offering healthy walks and great views of the lower areas. Once named Tremont Park, on November 2, 2020, the park was renamed for Walter Gladwin, the first Black elected official in Bronx history and former president of the Bronx chapter of the NAACP and director of the Bronx Chamber of Commerce.
