Tourist attraction Park

👍👍 This is my current favorite park in Pasadena. Great place to spend the afternoon on a sunny day. It's a very family friendly park. Plenty of shade and picnic tables next to the kids play area. The kids can play while the adults socialize around the tables. There are also public bathrooms by the play... People often mention park, area,

    This is my current favorite park in Pasadena. Great place to spend the afternoon on a sunny day. It's a very family friendly park. Plenty of shade and picnic tables next to the kids play area. The kids can play while the adults socialize around the tables. There are also public bathrooms by the playground. I recommend bringing chairs and/or blankets just in case large groups are having birthday partys and using all the tables. There's a lot of shade on the grass in which to set up your chairs and relax. When I have visited the park it has been clean and felt quite peaceful, lots of beautiful trees.

    Large, beautiful park. Plenty of street parking around the perimeter. Park has a ton of green open space, basketball courts, handball courts, children playgrounds, benches, and trees. Highly recommend!!

    Good small family park. Great with young children. Many young kids do their soccer practice here on weekdays. You will see the trash cans are full occasionally when there were birthday parties.

    What beautiful, clean, and people friendly place to come to. I've just moved to the area recently, and I've taken a walk here every day at different times of the day. It's awesome. I've really enjoyed it. It's a great place for family to spend time together.

    This park is really nice and is the perfect size. There's a large grass area in the middle with a walking path around it that has picnic tables and seating sprinkled throughout. It's well shaded from the gorgeous trees and is generally clean and well-kept everytime I've been here. There's a covered eating area that's perfect for birthday parties or gatherings, basketball courts, handball walls, children's play area, and bathrooms. Overall this is a great place to spend an afternoon.

    This is a very calm and relaxing park. It has a lot of amenities for a small park. It has a decent size Children's Area, Hand Ball Wall, Baseball Section, basketball court and bathrooms. The only issue is the smaller size and due to the virus, none of the amenities are open, they're blocked off.

    This park has been around for a long while. It's not the biggest, but nice for a quite location. Parking can be congestive if you're having a family gathering, mainly street parking. A couple of covered table areas, small playground area, clean. Small basketball court. It's nice to spend a couple of hours there if you need to unwind.
