    lovely basketball courts and lots of trees. open field for running. handball court, pollinator garden. one weird thing is that the playground seems to have only been half built. the metal pole structures are there but they're missing all the things that would hook on to them that would be climbable/interactive

    I enjoy this park.Clean. Alot of diverse people.Can be crowded at times.They have a basketball court,you can see kids ride there skateboard and do personal workouts at this court. In the center of the park is a nice grass area where people enjoy tanning,reading and meditation.In that same area, doggy parents will come and have some off leash play.Dont forget to buy puppy churlish from Lonnie and his dog Bella.They have bathrooms. Lots of benches. A gated park for toddlers. During the summer they have a small area for the water sprinklers. Alongside with another park entry where kids actually ride there skateboards.Teenagers and Adults can be knuckle heads and cause trouble so randomly cops will always be in patrol for everyone's safety. Park does hold events.

    Well that park is taken over by Anti Gun & Violence Organization and people that is with nonviolence and we all just get along just find , black and white people together. They always have basketball tournaments played by young kids and teenagers and the people sell food, ice cream , soda water and cookout so we can buy some BBQ and chicken and what not . We be having a ball in that park, specially on weekends. So if you have free time in your life , you owe yourself a favor of relaxation and peace and enjoyment and come spend time with us .

    My neighbors and I can't understand why each year NYCP Parks & City Parks Foundation waste $1MM+ to reseed the grass. It ends up being dirt and mud, primarily due to soccer. Funds would be better used installing proper drainage for the "moat". Cannot be good if it attracts mosquitoes. There's NO dog park here. All NYC parks have off leash hours, but as is the norm here, little or no compliance. Dogs are off leash frequently. Brower flanks the Children's Museum & a school. Doesn't make sense that off leash hours end at 9am. 🤔

    Great park for the community and has an area for everyone…except dogs. Really wish they would create a smaller dog park to keep dogs out of the larger grass area so humans can enjoy sh!t free fun.

    Pretty clean and nice park. Dog friendly, it just needs a fenced dog park.

    Great basketball 🏀 players , friendly environment unless you're here in the middle of summer and fierce competition is in the air

    It's my neighborhood park. Basketball courts, skateboarders, kids learning to ride their bikes, a grassy area that has turned into a dog park of sorts. Sometimes people picnic or lay out on the grass but, um, I'd beware of that. Sometimes there are concerts and a small farmers market.

  • 5/5 Phillips M. 8 months ago on Google
    Love this park. Good grassy area for tanning/reading. Basketball courts are always packed and skate park not so much.

  • 5/5 Emma B. 8 months ago on Google
    I am so obsessed with this park -- great memories at the skatepark in particular

  • 5/5 Brooke P. 9 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    The vibe? Peaceful. The culture? Varied. People sitting in the shade, walking dogs, making crafts, some dancing and some playing instruments. A playground and basketball courts on the far end were in use. I enjoyed reading my book from a shaded park bench, people-watching between chapters.

    Love the courts !!!! I have been waiting to ball here for a long time. I drove by here for years and the comp comes from all over to ball here!

  • 5/5 Kamella C. 10 months ago on Google
    Great park, several space for shows, sunbathing, dog walking, etc. There are two playgrounds, a fountain area, a paved circle for events and a small park. When I saw it I thought, a tiny prospect park in Crown Heights.

    Love our neighborhood park. It has a bit of everything and now new benches. Great place for a picnic or a stroll after the childrens museum for people who don’t live in the area.

  • 5/5 Analie F. 1 year ago on Google
    I passed by this park earlier this afternoon on my way home from my Wednesday's work. And as usual, it is always relaxing walking on this park even I am just passing by! If I have time, I would love to sit to one of the bench or mingling with the dogs and their owners! But, I needed to be home to be home for my online class

  • 5/5 Jax P. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice neighborhood park. Had a community fair. Well represented. Workers cleaning while event going on.

  • 5/5 Erin H. 1 year ago on Google
    Always a relaxing park to go to. Not super crowded with lots of shade and grass and benches, plus a playground, basketball courts, a skate park, and fountains to cool off in.

  • 4/5 Craig D. 1 year ago on Google
    Relatively clean park with a multi ethnic crowd. The lawn is an unofficial dog park in the mornings when owners let their furry friends off leash.

  • 4/5 Shariz A. 6 months ago on Google
    Brower Park is adjacent to the Brooklyn Children's Museum. The park has many different areas. Dog lovers can play with their dogs in a safe space. A gated playground area where you can feel safe with your babies. Also a nice size basketball court. Water sprinklers for the little ones to enjoy on a hot summer day. A skate park area and much more.

    A beautiful sunny day for yoga in Brower park!🧘🏾‍♀️

  • 3/5 Lisa Felicita T. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice. Pretty large. Clean. Nice playground for kids. Sprinklers too. They're was some kind of fight at the basketball court so that sucks but Nice park.

  • 5/5 Leonardo B. 2 years ago on Google
    I play basketball on Saturdays, it gets better after 4.00, you can also skate there. Cool place

  • 5/5 Ronen H. 2 years ago on Google
    Love this park. Beautiful to walk in the morning or early afternoon to go dog watching. It’s the perfect size for kids as well though I wish they would update the playground.

  • 5/5 Mike 2 years ago on Google
    A decent sized park, with different areas. There are plenty if trees and park benches to hide from the sun. There is also a large meadow like area for sun bathing. The park is well laid out...I left and came back for more, that says it all. It is an old park, nothing modern here, but if you like parks. This is one you might like.

  • 4/5 Tobie V. 2 years ago on Google
    Cute small clean quiet playground. I'm giving 4 stars cuz many if their entrances from Kingston towards Brooklyn are closed... I needed to walk all the way around to find an entrance which was actually open during the day.....
