Randall’s Island Field #60

Ever need a patch of green that’s actually green? Randall’s Island Field #60 delivers just that—one of the few soccer pitches on the island that stays open year-round. The field sits near the water, where the East River breeze cuts through the usual city heat. It’s a rare spot where the game isn’t interrupted by traffic noise or shadowed by high-rises.

Finding it isn’t complicated; the address is Q3PF+2J, Hell Gate Cir, New York, NY 10035. The location makes it accessible without being overrun—common for fields tucked between bridges and parkland. Players who show up early usually snag the best light, especially in fall when the sun drops behind the Triborough Bridge earlier than expected.

Soccer in New York often means sharing cramped courts or waiting for permits. Here, the space feels less contested, though it’s still wise to call ahead if you’re bringing a full squad. A quick phone call to (212) 860-1899 can confirm availability or clarify any field conditions that might affect play.

Directions tend to confuse first-timers; the map here marks the exact coordinates. The field blends into the island’s network of paths and parking lots, so following the pin saves time. Once you arrive, the view opens up—water on one side, open sky on the other, and just enough grass to keep the game moving.
