Jackie Robinson Park: Beyond the last playground,
from 153rd to 155th Streets, is a simple stretch of green parkland. Beyond
it is the massive Polo Grounds housing complex that replaced the Polo
Grounds Stadium in the 1960s. There is no good way to get from there to the
rest of Manhattan; 155th Street turns into a staircase so high, it
disappears into the vanishing point.
