The southeast end of Prospect Park is home to one of the most popular spots to glide around in Brooklyn. As part of a $74 million restoration by the Prospect Park Alliance, the LeFrak Center’s Lakeside project includes the open-air roller skating rink; kayak and pedal boat rentals; bicycle rentals; a children’s splash pad; and a daytime cafe (called The Bluestone Cafe) stocked with snacks and refreshments like Brooklyn Brewery beers. Open every day of the week throughout summer, during the colder months the property switches over to an ice skating arena.
