Baker's Field. "Baker Field, located at the northern tip of
Manhattan at 218th Street and Broadway, is home to several Columbia
Athletics facilities, including Wien Stadium, Columbia Soccer Stadium,
Columbia Softball Complex, Andy Coakley Field (baseball), The Dick Savitt
Tennis Center, The Gould-Remmer and 1929 Boathouses, and the Chrystie
Field House."
- Madison Square Garden.
- The Meadowlands Stadium.
"There's something about The Meadowlands that breeds EXCITEMENT. The kind
of excitement that SELLS OUT every Giants game since they moved here in
1976. That holds the ENERGY of the J-E-T-S fans who have filled every seat
since 1984.That helps Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band break every
WORLDWIDE attendance record and The Pope establish a Giants Stadium
single-day attendance standard that may never be exceeded. That draws the
BIGGEST purse in harness racing.
Here is a 700-acre entertainment oasis developed to accommodate virtually
any sports or entertainment event imaginable. Together, the three
Meadowlands facilities - Giants Stadium, Continental Airlines Arena and
The Meadowlands Racetrack - are the ultimate destination for more than 6
million enthusiastic guests a year and the site of hundreds of major
televised events.
Owned and operated by the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, The
Meadowlands provides a setting for excellence to happen. We don't throw
the passes, play the guitars or score the goals. We simply make sure
everything runs flawlessly so the stars can come out and shine."

Inline Skating
- Central Park Skate Patrol.
"The Central Park Skate Patrol was the first chapter of the International
Inline Skating Association's (IISA) National Skate Patrol. We operate from
April through October and give an average of 5,000 braking lessons a year
at our free Stopping Clinics.
Over the nearly ten years we've been in existence we've taught over 50,000
people how to brake! There's no way to measure exactly how many accidents
we've prevented, of course, but we've surely saved thousands of people
many headaches—both literally and figuratively—and prevented many visits
to the hospital.
Skaters who are interested in more extensive lessons are encouraged to
sign up for our Skate School, whose IISA-certified instructors offer
expert instruction at competitive rates ($25 for a 75-minute lesson).
The Skate Patrol also assists the Police and Parks Department with traffic
control during special events in Central Park such as operas, concerts,
skate races, and other events organized by the Parks Department in which a
large number of people enter the Park."
