Draddy Gymnasium is a 2,345-seat multi-purpose arena in the Bronx, New York. It is located on the campus of Manhattan College and is the home of the Manhattan Jaspers athletic teams including men's and women's basketball and women's volleyball.^[1] The building has the largest indoor track in New York City.

Draddy Gymnasium was named in the honor of the first wife and first son of alumnus Vincent dePaul Draddy, onetime quarterback at Manhattan College and later chairman of the College Football Hall of Fame.^[2] Both Draddy's wife and son, Vincent Jr., were killed in an automobile accident in 1953.

The facility was featured in Season 1 of The Cosby Show, where Clifford Huxtable trains to get ready for a relay race rematch of former college acquaintances at the Meadowlands Arena.
