The Key Skate Center Inline skaters should note that roller rinks which have wooden and other non-concrete surfaces often have a restriction on skates which might damage the floor. Usually this is in regards to exposed bolts in the frames. If you have an older style of inline skates, you may want to contact the rink in advance to find out whether your skates are rink-legal. Opening in the summer of 1995, this portion of a much larger sports complex contains two open-air concrete roller rinks being used for rollerhockey, lessons, and open skating. Both inline and traditional roller skates are welcome.
Skate rentals are available.
There's open skating during most of the day, and nighttime has a lot of hockey scheduled. On Saturday nights during the summer there are DJ sessions. You can also arrange birthday parties at the rinks. It's quite a change from skating the loop in Central Park. It's much smoother, and there are no dogs, bikes, and so on to get in the way.
