As in recent summers, tens of thousands of Orthodox men travelling up to the Catskills are expected to begin using the popular Mincha/Maariv area along the northbound NYS Thruway this evening.
The New York State Thruway Authority last year moved the “prayer zone” from the first to the second level of the parking structure that housed it. All minyanim take place on the second-level parking area (which is level with the second-floor restrooms). In the event of rain, minyanim will be allowed in the stairwell.
