Libraries located near parks are a good fit to lend recreation objects. NYPL's Midtown Campus , is near several parks/plazas//POPS ' it could act as recreation equipment parkhouse to these parks (see Partnering Libraries and Park)
-In addition to Bryant Park Corporations offerings for Bryant Park, NYPL's Midtown campus could offer a Library-Park Recreation Model Library Parkhouse of recreation equipment to supplement the Bryant Park Collection for Bryant Park. Specialized needs recreation equipment stored here could supplement Bryant Park Corporations Offerings.
The NYPL Play Library could also be used in area plazas, parklets and Privately Owned Public Spaces such as One Bryant Park, Times Square Plaza, Grace Plaza.and the soon to open Boulevard 41
One Bryant Park Atrium is an" indoor park", that only offers seating and no other recreation amenities. During cold momths, Chess, Scrabble and other table games could be borrowed from the NYPL Play library for use here. (Could one use a hula hoop or jump rope here too? good question.
Boulevard 41
