New Balance Track and Field Center at the Armory—"The World's Fastest Track"
The Armory, one of the finest indoor facilities in the country, has been the site of many state, national, and world record-breaking performances. City Sports for Kids uses its 200-meter banked oval track and eight-lane straightaway for running, relays, sprints, and hurdles. Other features of the facility used by the program include sand long-jump pits and a shot-put cage.

The Armory is the mecca for high school and college track in the New York City area. Thousands of youth participate in the various invitational and championship meets held on its state-of-the-art track—including the national high school championships. The National Track and Field Hall of Fame at the Armory opened in 2004.
