Asphalt Green - Upper East Side campus

Asphalt Green is an exceptional destination for children of all ages, providing a fun and engaging environment to learn various sports, including soccer, basketball, baseball, swimming, and karate. Adults can enjoy the top-notch gym and Olympic-size swimming pool, making it an outstanding choice for fitness. Additionally, Spear Physical Therapy, located on the 5th floor, offers comprehensive services and accepts all insurances, including Medicare. However, it's important to note that the pricing can be quite high, especially when seeking a personal trainer. For public members, the cost is $832.50, while members pay $707.63 for four months. One daily session may not be practical, as they only offer training on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with added costs on those days. Moreover, Asphalt Green currently does not provide discounts for seniors or individuals with disabilities. Many patrons and staff believe that implementing a discount would significantly enhance accessibility and benefit the community. Investing in these changes could make Asphalt Green an even more inclusive and attractive place for everyone.

Attended a soccer game. The field is turf and very fast. They have basketball courts too. Plenty of picnic tables and a vending machine. Indoor clear bathrooms are available.i noticed the engineers came through to clear any garbage and maintain cleanliness. Parking is on the street and very limited. Used a local garage for 15 one block away.

We had a closure for 12 days, which started a chain of back and forth emails due to the lack of certainty when it came to reopening, with quite a lot of frustration involved. I'm pleased to share that Asphalt Green has addressed my concerns (after several back and forth emails) regarding the recent facility closure. They've offered account credit to all customers as a gesture of appreciation for our patience, which I found to be a fair and satisfactory resolution. While the closure was certainly disruptive, I appreciate their efforts to rectify the situation. It's clear they value their members, and I'm now feeling much more positive about my membership. _______________________________________________________________

This is one of the very best swimming pools I've ever swum at, and those pools include Harvard's in Cambridge, Mass., The Mt. Auburn Club, whose pool was just marvelous and nearly always empty, until it closed a couple years ago (a real loss to the area). Asphalt Green has two huge pools with a godzillion lanes (well, not a godzillion, but plenty). If you go at the right times ( in the evening after 8, in the afternoon around 2:30, there will be at least two lanes with two people or less.) The women's locker room is marvelous, pristine, with plenty of towels, deodorant, body lotion, hair spray, and in the showers shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel. You can't ask for anything more, can you? And the pool attendants and personnel at the front desk are just as nice as they can be.

The pool, the pool, the pool. Like Goldilocks, I have tried other pools. The Dodge Y, the Chinatown Y, Chelsea Piers, pools in my apartment building. To quote the late Sinead O'Connor, nothing compares. I trained for two triathlons here, so know the bottom of this pool intimately. And the pool is always clean, perfectly maintained, and a joy! It's Olympic-sized. What I like is that there's typically not a lot of crowding in the lap lanes, so you don't run into the (common) issue of other swimmers tickling your toes or slowing your rhythm. Swimming at Asphalt Green is a mermaid's dream.
