Gottesman Rink at the Davis Center

The Gottesman Rink at the Davis Center is your neighborhood hub for winter fun. From open ice-skating to hockey, our programs inspire, educate, and connect New Yorkers of all ages and skill levels against the stunning backdrop of the Harlem Meer.

The Gottesman Rink is now closed for the season. Thank you for an unforgettable first winter at the rink—we can’t wait to see you next year!

“This year, our family went from never having stepped onto the ice to feeling comfortable and confident skating together—and that is entirely because of this incredible group of coaches. What a gift!”

A Space for Growth

“We had a wonderful experience with the Learn to Skate program and look forward to being back next season. I was in Level 2 for most sessions and then stepped it up to Level 3 when one of the coaches spotted me and encouraged me to join her smaller group.”

Welcome to All

“Our community loved the facility and your warm welcome. The skate guards were incredible with our autistic students—professional, respectful, and ‘there’ with them. We will be back.”
