I like this gym. Surprisingly tiny with very limited equipment, but its also rarely busy, so I never have to wait for the squat rack or bench to open up. Nice vibe.

Pretty weird place but its completely free for 18 and under. It looks dirty and unsanitary but it is just old.

Unfortunately the locker room and shared bathrooms are filthy and the exercise room is very tight and constrained with various pieces of equipment out of service or incomplete, is evident that this NYC Parks Recreation Center gets little to no maintenance or supervision, quite tragic. You can skip this one. Recommendable if there is no other choice near you.

Facility isnt the most up to date or high end, it is an older building after all. However, if youre looking for the basics for working out they do fill the need. They have free weights, benches, and cardio machines that can get the sweat on. They also have a small computer room, general room, and a gymnasium upstairs and some outside basketball and handball courts as well. The outside area is usually occupied by the school kids during their recess periods though.The most important thing though is the staff and Alfred E. Smith has always been run very well, with friendly staff. You feel safe and welcomed at all times.

The programs and staff are excellent. Like any public facility, it could use more funding.

If youre looking for the cheapest basic gym option, this is a good bet. If youre looking for anything more than that, you will be disappointed
