Four Summer Camps In Prospect Park
Prospect Park is the most accessible greenspace in Brooklyn with the Q/B train running along its eastern side, the F/G line on the western side, and the 2/3/4/5 trains near Grand Army Plaza at the north end. Prospect Park is an easy walk from Park Slope, Windsor Terrace, Kensington, Ditmas Park, Prospect-Lefferts Garden, and Prospect Heights.
It’s no wonder so many summer camps set up a base in Prospect Park.

LeFrak Center at Lakeside was Prospect Park Alliance’s most ambitious and expensive project in the past 150 years. It transformed the southeast corner of Prospect Park and opened up a reasonably priced summer camp. Campers get to take advantage of the brand new, $74 million, indoor/outdoor facility.
