Google is telling me that the rink is open this week but my friend and I went over during opening hours and the rink was still being constructed and the rubber path was not put down yet either. The Empire Skate calendar is also not up. So what's up?

Hi, the rink is not open. It typically opens around Thanks Giving. They are still working on it and there is no ice. I work at the Plaza and am looking at the rink as I write this. Thanks!

This may seem silly, but is the rink still “frozen” to skate on, on these warmer weather days when the snow is melting everywhere? Thank you!

What size do skate rentals go up to? Specifically men.

Dimitra Hunter | Sep 16, 2018
Mike DiNardo | Sep 16, 2018

I wear 12, so they don't least that high. Maybe up to 14, not 100% though

do your parents have to stay there with you? please answer ASAP

vanessa flaherty | Sep 16, 2018
Andre | Sep 16, 2018

I recommend that kids are watched, but no one is carefully checking from what I could see. So whether it's required or not, I'd say the real answer is "no".

What’s the prices

Rj Yannick | Sep 16, 2018
Al Faller | Sep 16, 2018

The rink is free. Skate rentals are $3 for kids and $4 for adults
