About
The Davis Center (formally the Davis Center at the Harlem Meer) is a seasonal ice skating rink and swimming pool at the southwest corner of the Harlem Meer in the northern part of Central Park in Manhattan, New York City. Completed in 2025, it was built on the site of Lasker Rink (formally known as the Loula D. Lasker Memorial Swimming Pool and Skating Rink). The original rink, designed by the architects Fordyce & Hamby Associates, operated from 1966 to 2021 and was demolished after its final operating season.
