I'm not sure how long you have been skating, but there are absolutely lights at that park. Now they may turn them on during the summers these days but there are lights.

There are also lights at the park under the Kosciuszko Bridge.

Not sure if this is still alive, but here you go: https://www.change.org/p/nyc-parks-department-install-lights-in-nyc-skateparks

There's already a petition in place to get the other parks lights.

LES has lights. Cooper has lights. I believe the Washington Heights one has lights. The only ones that don't have lights is because they close at a certain time.
