The North
Meadow, with its 50 acres of
land with twelve official ball fields, is the
largest and most spectacular open space
in Central Park.
There are seven baseball and five softball
fields. In the autumn these fields are
converted into six fields for soccer or
touch football.
With its gently sloping inclines onlookers
can enjoy the game from a restful spot
nearby. Unique to the North Meadow are
the numerous bedrock outcroppings make
the perfect lookout point at various spots
from east to west.
