A
good
place
to
have
a
nice
walk,
they
have
some
nice
weeping
willows
(although
one
or
two
less
than
they
used
too
to
my
knowledge),
open
fields,
soccer
goals
set
up
during
relevant
seasons
(summer,
spring,
fall).
I
can’t
find
anything
wrong
with
this
place,
which
was
a
bit
of
a
proper
romping
grounds
during
part
of
my
childhood.
Why?
Because
it’s
great
for
children.
There’s
two
playgrounds,
and
a
elementary
school
as
well
as
a
middle
school.
It’s
also
functions
as
a
fine
dog
park,
although
the
only
catch
of
that
aspect
of
the
park
is
this:
you
are
not
allowed
to
take
your
dog
off
the
leash
while
in
the
park.
So
it
would
be
kind
of
hard
to
throw
old
Rover
that
tennis
ball
you’d
conveniently
brought
on
your
walk
through
Prospect
Park.
The
park
district
sets
up
the
hill
near
the
corner
of
Norfolk
and
Oxford
for
sledding
every
winter
and
the
tennis
courts
near
the
middle
school
for
ice
skating,
and
it’s
a
decent
enough
hill
for
some
good
sledding.
They
also
set
up
some
sort
of
festival
with
hay
bails
good
for
children
near
that
hill
in
the
fall.
The
park
district
does
a
good
job
of
maintaining
Prospect
park,
and
has
always
looked
into
any
reports
I
make
about
the
park
with
considerable
haste
within
the
next
day
or
two.
It’s
a
beautiful
place
with
considerable
function.
With
twin
ponds
good
for
mild
fishing,
nice
open
fields
for
romping
and
what
not,
3
baseball
fields
used
by
local
leagues,
a
nice
tennis
court,
and
seasonally
open
bathrooms
and
a
new
mini
parking
lot
for
oxford
st.
on
a
smaller
note,
this
is
a
pretty
nice
place.
