Last week marked the official ribbon-cutting for the Brooklyn Banks, one of the most iconic skate spots in the world. Vans, with support from the VF Foundation, is proud to help revive this cultural landmark in partnership with Gotham Park and The Skatepark Project. As part of New York City’s $50 million revitalization of The Arches beneath the Brooklyn Bridge, the Brooklyn Banks have been transformed into a vibrant space for skateboarding, creativity, and community. With renewed public access, restored architecture, and a focus on cultural preservation, the Banks are once again open to the people who made them legendary. At Vans, we believe skateboarding has the power to transform public space and bring communities together. This is more than a park, it’s a movement. We look forward to celebrating Go Skateboarding Day at the Brooklyn Banks on June 21st, from 1–5:30 PM EST. Stay tuned for more details.
