Brentwood State Park, Athletic complex in Suffolk County, United States
Brentwood State Park is a sports facility in Suffolk County featuring eight soccer fields and two baseball fields made of artificial turf. The complex occupies roughly 50 acres and provides fields laid out across the property for both football and baseball play.
The land once belonged to Pilgrim Psychiatric Center until the late 1990s when plans changed the site's purpose entirely. The shift from a medical facility to a public sports complex represented a major transformation of the property.
The athletic complex serves as a central gathering place for local sports teams and strengthens community bonds through organized sporting events.
The park can be entered through two access points on Crooked Hill Road and Community College Drive, with operations running until sunset each day. Visitors should plan visits during daylight hours to enjoy the full range of sports facilities.
The grounds underwent a major renovation project in the 2000s that transformed the decaying remains of the former hospital into working sports fields. This rebuilding allowed the community to repurpose the site for recreation and competition rather than medical care.
