    Neighborhood has really been updated & made more beautiful than I ever got to see as a child. Its sad how things change based on the demographics of the community. When all the black folks were in this area, there was no making the area beautiful. Now that they've pushed us all out & brought in other folk, oh it looks like a wonderland. I didn't stay around long enough to give a more detailed comment than this because the little girl in me said where was all this when I was a kid living here .

    Very nice place. Big park. They have soccer field as well as the baseball field. You can also get a beautiful view of skyscrapers. I like it. Best place to hang around with your friends, family kids and buddies.

    Played pick up basketball and tennis. Loved the fields next to the courts but was getting scared when it was dark.

    Seward park can be a very comfortable and pleasant experience but, to many vagrants, to many men getting high and drug selling is very evident, the drinking of Alcohol and drug use is very apparent

    Great place to let the dogs play. Plenty of room to run around, and they love it. Would love it if the city would put a few trash cans around the area.

    The park grounds are littered. The basketball courts are in poor shape and need to be swept. Fountain hasn't been on since before the pandemic and has weeds growing in it. It's like this park has been completely neglected.

    A nice little park with a play structure for the kids! It was very clean on my visit and was not very busy. Has some trees to hang a hammock and a nice grassy are for a picnic or to let your dog run around, also had a big cement area to draw on with chalk or things like that. All in all a nice small park.

    Great view of the skyline. Played kickball here and had a blast. Grounds are well maintained and plenty of benches. Not the biggest park but a quaint little park right in busy Old Town

    Great park, hard to keep fields maintained in the rain but awesome skyline view

  • 3/5 Kelsey H. 1 year ago on Google
    This park has been under construction for what feels like 17 years. The fences around the outside make it a huge pain to get anywhere within the park.

    It’s a park that is currently under construction has basketball ball courts and a open field where you can do small activities at. Over all it’s a pretty clean park.

    Quiet Park! Simple slides and swings! Nice quick stop walking home from the grocery store! There's basketball rims too! Fun!

    It's a very nice place to spend a sunny day under the trees on the grass or on a park bench if one is available. In the center of the park is a large lawn where you can bring dogs to play fetch - Peter James Larsen ™
