    Love this park. It’s big, peaceful, aesthetically pleasing with lots of well maintained grass and it’s in a nice neighborhood where you can easily find parking. Lots of running space for kids

    So many lovely and large trees! Very open space. I just wish the water feature wasn’t closed off.

    Nice clean park as I always remembered it. It has a smooth asphalt path for walking/ running around. Nice field in the middle of the walking path for playing. There are clean trash cans at all entrances of the park. Good field to bring kids or to just take a stroll.

    Great jogging path, and a pretty fountain, though the Columbus statue was removed. A memorial to WW2 soldiers in the park, and lots of small hills and grassy areas everywhere. I like the trees. It was also great when last year, (Year of the cicadas) you could challenge your friends to run across the center field that was completely covered with cicadas. One of my friends accidently almost ate one!

    Went to go walk in the park after a hectic dental visit at the University to just relax and ground myself. The park itself was beautiful but I didn't stay for more than a minute because I realized that the parking was only for local permit. I wished that I could have stayed and experienced more there was a nice lady doing Tai chi right at the entrance. Really nice vibe to the whole place. Maybe parking can get resolved and people can enjoy it more from out of the area.

    Very nice park to relax and enjoy quiet time. There are plenty of trees to get some shade as well. There are rental bikes near by.

    Nice place. Home of the Buehrle Pudge Zen tree. A must see. Zen by the tree.

    I LOVE THIS PARK. It’s quiet, clean (usually) and has a great view of the city. The jogging path is very popular, and when the weather is warm it’s not unusual to see people sunning themselves, reading books or flying kites. It’s also a great place to walk your dog.

    Like the small, paved path! One round of the the oval path Is about a quarter of a mile as I ran four times the loop giving me a mile. Lots of people either walk or run and I've seen many walk their dogs, sunbathe, throw frisbees and have picnic. There are about two benches.

    A tribute to the military and pretty clean. I would keep an eye on the tree growth in the next 5 to 7 years. Last visit not as clean residents have to be held accountable

    I used to run here until I moved to a different locality. This is a beautiful park with lots of greenery. People often visit here for picnics and outdoor cooking. You find lots of dogs taking walk with their owners in the park. People play games such as fussball, cricket etc.

  • 5/5 Jay K. 2 years ago on Google
    Lush green and Beautiful park. Perfect place to go for a nice morning or evening walk. Great picnic place as well. Maybe more benches would be great. But all in all an awesome place to getaway from the city side.

    Beautiful park Bring back the Columbus Statue

  • 5/5 Carolynn G. 11 months ago on Google
    This is a neighborhood park, in Little Italy. It's the sort of place where neighbors exercise, walk, play sports on the green, and relax. It's not a tourist destination, and there really isn't any big attractions here.

  • 5/5 Varsha M. 10 months ago on Google
    Its closer to my place and I go here everyday. Beautiful park and amazing crowd. Pet friendly and very safe. Love the location.

  • 5/5 raju s. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice open park. There is plenty of space to practice baseball skills such as pitching and throwing. You can also set up a batters net and tee to practice hitting

  • 4/5 Melody P. 2 years ago on Google
    Lot's of trees provide shade in the summer. Big grassy area. A couple of benches along the pathway to sit. As you walk around you can see part of the downtown skyline. On one of the pathways takes you to a memorial. Very calming and peaceful.

    Beautiful park so much fun to walk around :)

  • 5/5 Carlo R. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been going to this park since I was 4. My best friend’s dad was born in the hospital next door that has since been converted to condos. Grateful that over the years this community has learned to embrace the best parts of its history and to let go of its ugly past.

  • 5/5 Nick C. 2 years ago on Google
    Neat park. Tons of open space and a nice small trail. Could use a few more benches or tables.

  • 5/5 Lincy 2 years ago on Google
    In summer time, its full of people and children. Very well maintained park

  • 5/5 Mo D. 1 year ago on Google
    Small park and open space. No kids playground but you can let them run wild outside in the open space. It used daily by the neighbors and we love it
