    My family goes to this park every year to watch Red, White, and Boom. It has a perfect veiw of the fireworks display. When it's over there is no long wait in traffic. The CPD closes off oneside of McKinley Ave and does a great job directing the traffic.

  • 3/5 Travis B. 7 years ago on Google
    A nice large park with a good sized playground suitable for younger kids. This park is in a rough neighborhood, though. Occasional drug users and bums but the police do a good job clearing then out.

  • 4/5 Charles C. 1 year ago on Google
    Park's that's more out the way so you're not bothered when you're sitting in your car at least I wasn't

  • 4/5 Dani B. 1 year ago on Google

    Nice park very quite

  • 4/5 Daria H. 6 months ago on Google
    Cute and quaint little playground and big open field for little league sports. There is a bit of garbage laying around the perimeter of the parking lot, but nothing too crazy. Decent size basketball courts. The only con is a lot of men drive in and frequent the porta potty located there. Not a crime, but something to be wary of if you're alone. Otherwise, it's nice to have a space for the kiddos in the neighborhood!

  • 3/5 Rickie G. 3 years ago on Google
    Fairly clean need a bigger shelter and maybe some benches and tables

  • 2/5 Grove C. 3 years ago on Google
    First a little piece of history this park was the location of multiple homes right after the WWII veterans returned. The housing was 2 story military looking apartments most connected alll wood. Years later the housing was torn down and the city made a small park. The park is not one of the best maintained but is greatly needed to give the young people /kids some place to have sports activities. Being next to railroad tracks and close to a river many homeless people live in the area. Many times drug needles may be found. The park has porta johns during the summer and fall seasons. Even though it is a small park it is well appreciated by the neighborhood.

  • 2/5 BΓ¨de J. 4 years ago on Google
    This Park has to have some intervention to make it more attractive. But, it's a good place and it has a best geographic position.
