Very good park for the middle of the city This park is the closest good park to where I live, and I enjoyed taking my family here. The park has a recreation center that offers all kinds of community classes, plus a baseball field, and walking trails through semi-wooded areas. It is an oasis in the middle of the urban landscape. My only complaint is that they don't have enough parking. PROS: Good place to go in the middle of the city CONS: Can hear urban noise and traffic, crowded parking
