Lasky Recreation Center

Located in District 3 on the Northeast side of Detroit, this small and distinctive center was established in July 1940; constructed through the Works Progress Administration program. Come inside for dance, crafts, weight room and boxing. Located next to Jayne Field the outdoor offerings are plentiful with tennis, basketball and cricket fields and soccer. Named to remember Detroit Recreation Commissioner and businessman Bernard Lasky (1896-1973) who made rec programming for the disabled a priority & understood the connection with outdoor space and healthy living.  

Lasky Recreation Center will be closed starting August 28th - September 11th, 2023 for mid season clean up! We apologize for the inconvenience.
