2 East New York parks close for upgrades
Two parks in East New York are under construction as they receive much-needed makeovers.
Linden Park and Cypress Hills Playground are receiving upgrades that include misting stations, drinking fountains, tracks and fields.
Linden Park is also getting new lights and a pull-up bar, while Cypress Hills will get a perimeter recreation path, reconstructed dugouts and bleachers.
The changes are backed by about $9 million in funding from the city.
Construction at both parks is expected to be completed by next fall.
