Barbecuing Rules

Please be cautious when barbecuing and keep a safe distance from patrons, children, and trees. Be courteous to others and please clean the area carefully before you leave. Events involving more than 20 people require a special events permit.

Our rules prohibit:

  • Littering and dumping of debris
  • Propane
  • Barbecuing in non-authorized areas
  • Barbecuing next to trees, tree roots, or buildings. Please keep ten feet or more away from any structures.
  • Any type of open, ground, or camp fire. Please barbecue at least three feet off the ground.
  • Barbecuing by anyone 18 years or younger

Cleaning Up

All coal and matches must be disposed of in designated red barrels. Please do not place anything flammable in a regular litter barrel. Use water to extinguish hot coals. Improperly dumped coals or matches can do major damage to our parks.

Red Hook Recreation Center

indoors. The center will
reopen once the facility

Outdoor Pools
Red Hook

Red Hook Pool is temporarily closed. Just before the pool was scheduled to open, there was a major, unexpected failure in the equipment which operates the pool. We are working to make needed repairs as quickly as possible, but it will take time to receive some of the required parts. We anticipate opening in mid-August.



We apologize for the inconvenience and encourage you to visit other Brooklyn pools such as Douglass & Degraw (250 Douglass Street) or Sunset Pool (7th Ave & 41st St).
