What Parents Say
Lost Battalion Hall is a recreation center (not a traditional daycare) in Rego Park with mixed feedback. Parents praise the friendly staff, affordable membership, and variety of facilities including gym equipment, pools, basketball courts, and programs for multiple age groups. However, concerns exist about aging infrastructure, maintenance issues, and equipment wear.
FUNDED WITH $26 MILLION in taxpayer money. The best thing is, this $26 Million is just for renovating an existing working facility. Its a small Recreation Center with small Gym in the basement and a basketball hall on the first floor.
Closed for reconstruction since July 2022, with completion projected for January 2024. As of May 31, 2025, construction is stated to be 94% complete on the NYC Parks capital project tracker.
Good and affordable place for Olympic weightlifting. There's a coach for M/W/F and Tu/Th/Sa. Platforms and bumper plates are pretty worn out; there are some newer bumper plates. On M/W/F: Very approachable coach, good environment if you want to get into weightlifting, everyone is supportive. Ping pong balls coming to the platforms may be annoying to some. Weight room is relatively small and can get crowded. Dumbbells aren't placed in the proper slots in the rack. There may be some individuals that don't know English and won't understand "can I work in with you?" or "how many sets do you have left?" Cardio room is medium sized, one long hallway. Some of the equipment is old, some is newer, however they are all usable. At the moment there are two treadmills that are out of service. There are plenty of small lockers to use in the basement. The basement restrooms could be better taken care of and the shared space to change clothes is limited if there are more than two people changing. There's a large basketball court upstairs and depending on the schedule, there may be badminton, volleyball, or basketball being played (to my knowledge). The staff members are generally friendly and helpful. Haven't had a problem with them yet.
If it was possible to give it less than one star i would the weight lifting area is tiny everybody is literally on top of each other just to use the machine one of the staff members took it upon herself to go in every locker and remove peoples items because "you dont have a lock on it" so when you ask her where can i keep my items in the meantime until i leave i do not have a lock yet she just reinstate "you supposed to have a lock you cant keep it here your stuff will be thrown out" yet there is a security guard clearly sitting in front of the lockers. Who is going to steal your items when everyone is either in the weight lifting area or exercise room. If there was a sign above i am wrong but i did not see a sign stating you cannot keep items in the locker unless you have a lock. I advise whoever is planning on exercising at this location to travel a little further out for a better experience with the staff.
