The revamp of Terrapin Playground, the section of J.J. Byrne Park that Shaya Boymelgreen and associates have used as a staging area during construction of the Novo, is supposed to be complete by May, according to a story in last week’s Crain’s (sub req’d). Work on the westernmost section of the public park (which will include a eight new handball courts, two new basketball courts, a skate area, and a dog run area) was originally supposed to be finished last summer. While we can’t say that we’ve noticed a great deal of progress on the space since we checked in on it in December, it would certainly be terrific if the long overdue reopening were only a few months away and ready for summer.
