This is probably one of the most scenic tracks I’ve ever run on. It’s a beautiful place to workout especially during sunset. The track and field are very well taken care of- shoutout to the park employees 🫡. It’s about 30 minutes from grand central and a 12 minute walk from the subway.
However it does get PACKED in the evenings now that it’s warm outside. One of my grievances about this place is that a lot of people who run here lack self awareness and workout etiquette. Today I tweaked my hamstring pretty badly trying to evade someone who didn’t bother to look both ways while jumping into my lane while I was doing a sprint workout… That can actually be pretty dangerous, so people need to be more aware if they’re going to run here.
Despite my experience, it is a great track and I’ll be back for future workouts, just at a different time of the day

It’s a great park. I love coming with my kids to this park. It’s got a wonderful view and a big parking lot.
The park is a NYC jewel. By the east river. Very breezy. Did a few miles on the track which is in great shape. I would definitely recommend. If you are in Astoria and looking for a place to work out or chill. Check out Astoria park.😀

Awww a new cool track! They finished the $13M upgrade in around Oct 2019 and then Covid came around and the rest of the park is getting worked on now. We're looking forward to new bathrooms, too! It's a low key track with kids on the track, lots of folks working out inside the track area. Classes happening and good ol' soccer seems to always be happening too. Although some of the nets are already getting torn. 2 drinking fountains are working now on both sides of the track with 2 water fountains each and a water bottle refiller too.

Recently resurfaced track and soccer field. Gorgeous blue color. Other areas undergoing renovations, but they did a great job, so far. Perfect for all exercices.
Love this track! It's always clean, has lights for those nightly runs and a big field to play sports or host workout classes.

The update process ended. It looks amazing.
New track. Center part of the track was rebuild, I believe some drainage system was put in place, artificial grass for the green space. New Goals for soccer games and potentially football tag games.
The outer part was repaved, new machines for exercise and light for night walls. The view is awesome like always. Love it.
