The making of Cadman Plaza Park
A new artificial turf field is unrolled in Downtown Brooklyn
DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — Work began on Aug. 18, and already large sections of a new artificial turf field are being unrolled in Cadman Plaza Park in Downtown Brooklyn.
Last week the old artificial turf was stripped from the field, and over the weekend, workers laid down rolls of fresh underlay and new synthetic turf.
The former turf had been worn out by the thousands of soccer, football and T-ball games, protest marches and rallies which have taken place on the synthetic field since its installation in 2007.
