west village

Pier Forty base field:

Base field is usually crowded with a lot of teams with practicing permits from many different sports however the fields features are great. 

• Turf 9/10 

• lighting 10/10

• goals 9/10

• lining 10/10

• fencing 10/10

One of if not the best field in Manhattan with many accomodations that go with the great field such as lots of trash cans, bathrooms, vending machines, and water fountains. The off field space is pretty good with bleachers off the field as well

Pier forty Rooftop (1): 

Although with a nice view and maybe more available then other fields the features of the field are very lacking.

• turf 5/10

• lining 8/10

• goals 6.5/10

• lighting 6/10 

• fencing 7/10 

some holes are in the fence so shoot at your own risk because your ball might end up in the Hudson.  This field will be more available then the others because it is not as desirable. There are vending machines but a trip to the bathroom or water fountain is along walk downstairs. there is also bleachers next to the field. The field is not big enough for a 11 vs 11 game.

Pier Forty Rooftop (2):

Field is brand new however mainly accesible only with a permit. Often times the gate is field open but occasionally you will find it locked. There are practices here however not as frequent as the bottom field.

• Turf: 9.5/10

• fencing 7/10

• lighting 10/10

• lining 6/10

• goals 6/10

Turf is the best I have seen over the course of this project. The field is designated to seven aside and five aside games which it is prefect for, but because of this it lacks good lining. Not many good off pitch features or good off pitch space and your ball is at risk of going in the Hudson.  It is unpredictable to know if it is free because it always might be locked. Lighting perfect

Raymond Pagan park(JJ Walker):

A park for lots of people due to its many different attractions. It has sprinklers, playgrounds, a wall for tennis and benches outside the field.  Next to it are a lot of restaraunts and it is close to the one train.

• turf: 6.5/10

• goals: 6/10

• lighting: 10/10

• Lining: 6/10

• fencing: 9/10

It is not big enough for a eleven vs eleven game but it is a good field for anything else.  There is a lot of things to do off the field and it usually doesn't have too many permits.
