Just a stone's throw from Logan International Airport, Joe Porzio Park in East Boston, Massachusetts, overlooks Boston Harbor and the city skyline in the distance. A smaller-than-regulation-size, two-hoop basketball court is among the public recreation area's amenities.

The full court has a faded paint job of green with red accents for the center circle and free throw lanes. The large, rectangle backboards are metal painted solid white and mounted to galvanized round poles. Each goal has heavy-duty, orange hoops with white cotton nets. The playing surface is laid out roughly east-west at the southern end of an urban neighborhood park. Four park benches are placed in two rows outside of the southern sideline near a pair of small shade trees. The court's base is mainly intact and flat though cracks crisscross it, some sprouting crab grass.

Full Court?: yes

Nets on hoops?: yes

Court Access: Public

Surface Quality: Worn, Barely See Lines, Cracks in Concrete
