Bittersweet: Flushing Meadows



This past fall we lost a great skateboarding landmark called, Flushing Meadows. I had the chance to skate there 1 time and planned to go there again, however I found out before heading over to skate that the fountain was being constructed on, so that skateboarders would no longer be able to skate there. The Maloof Money Cup Competition series is now building a skatepark in flushing replicating the main attribute of Flushing Meadows grate gap/grind ledge, while bringing aspects of many famous spots around NYC. Check out this video talking about the park construction and the competition.
