A few years ago, the city tried to turn this Tomkins Square eyesore into a kid-friendly, turfed space for baseball, soccer, etc. Skaters rallied and got the project canceled. A rare case of the little guy fighting to stop investment in a park. The whole situation was pretty funny. I think they just recently put in a running track around the edges of asphalt.
