About Cary Leeds Center for Tennis & Learning

The Cary Leeds Center for Tennis & Learning in Crotona Park serves as NYJTL’s flagship tennis and community education facility, created through a public/private partnership with New York City's Department of Parks & Recreation. Located at 1720 Crotona Ave, Bronx, NY 10457, this center brings together competitive play, youth programs, and community access. The venue features 22 courts in total, with two stadium exhibition courts that offer permanent seating and a viewing bridge for optimal sightlines. Spectator capacity is nearly 800 across the two stadium courts, while exhibition courts can accommodate viewing for up to about 1,000 spectators when events are active. The center remains an active hub for NYJTL tournaments and related ITF/ Bronx Open activities.

Parking is limited on-site with a designated lot (Crotona Park lot) offering about 13 spaces; parking is on a first-come, first-served basis during programs. For easy access, the center is reachable via public transit, including the #2 or #5 trains to Freeman Station or Prospect Avenue, as well as BX 17 and BX 11 bus routes serving the Crotona Park area. Nearby lodging and dining options provide convenient stays for visitors, with affiliate recommendations for hotels and restaurants to streamline your visit.
