    If you like the smell of cigars and old men this is the park for you. They sit right under no smoking signs, not giving a damn about anyone else, including any kids that may be around. The biggest collection of jerks in the city ruin a great place to go in Chicago. By the way, smoking is illegal in all city parks. But I guess not here.

    Great place to sit down and enjoy your time. (Side Note - You can witness many Chicago Police officers breaking rules. For example - double parking, smoking on duty, and harassing homeless individuals.) PER CPD Website The Department is committed to providing a healthful, comfortable, and productive work environment for all employees. Smoking has proved to be dangerous and damaging, not only to the smoker’s health, but also to nonsmokers who breathe “secondary” smoke. It is the policy of the Department that smoking shall be prohibited in any Department facility or vehicle by anyone.

    Romantic park where you can chill and relax after a nice dinner, shopping, or random walks. In the middle of all these high end restaurants. It's dog friendly, no restroom.

    Oh, what can I say about this place that hasn't been said already. This is a great place to just be. You have nature, the City, people from all ages, and all places. I have walked through this little oasis for the last 20 years and I hope to continue for another 40! There is an art show in the Park several times a year. There will be a show on August 25 and 26th. Local artists too!

    Viagra Triangle is cozy and unique, enjoy a coffee or a gelato as the world goes by. Surrounded by Gold coast restaurants such as Maple & Ash, Gibsons and much more !

    I used to love this park. Now, all the crooked cops and detectives come here and smoke cigars and tell people it’s ok to smoke here.

    A beautiful day and our first day out during Covid, outdoor dining is back and this is a great place in the middle of the gold coast.

    Calling it a "park" is overselling - it's a triangular block with a coffee shop and a fountain. That said, it's a nice place to sit and people watch in the city. Lot of activity all around.

    It's kinda of a unique place. One reviewer has said it already but you can just sit down and watch the world go by. It's an ideal lunch spot for me (gotta bring your own food) on A lunch break. There is a small coffee stand there and gelato is served seasonally there as well.
