On Mon., Oct. 19, current and past members of the New York Knicks — including Carmelo Anthony and John Starks — along with Parks Commissioner Mitchell Silver and state Senator Brad Hoylman, cut the ribbon at the rehabilitated W. Fourth St. basketball courts, at Sixth Ave. and W. Third St.
The Knicks organization paid for the $250,000 job, which included resurfacing and new backboards and rims, plus fencing. The ceremony was followed by a skills clinic for local kids conducted by the pro players.
