Great holiday experience. My son was extremely happy with the decorations and all the inflatables! Awesome vibes, thumbs up to Spider girl at the end of the tour \m/

Love this park. As a fan of landscape architecture, the stairs are a big attraction.
Definitely a good park to get some cool pictures of your car too.
When you're in this park, it feels like you are a world away from the challenged neighborhood nearby, which is absolutely wonderful.
That being said, it can feel like an opening scene of Law & Order as well, lol. So just be sure to keep that in mind.

It's a decent place a bit noisy from the road/highway near by it's not super quiet but good for a walk or a jog. Couple old structures and monuments that's cool there's a playground good for kids

good park easy to walk but the traffic through the park (cars) makes it a little chaotic. Little free library here also and running the steps will get you.

Best time to go is early morning though 2pm after that be prepared for people smoking, drinking and loud music of all kinds. Plus watch out for used condoms all over the place. Other than that is a nice place. 👌

Nice city park with a great kids play ground. Nice scenary at the time with great fall foliage in all colors. Best time to visit is during daytime- weekdays when it's not crowded.
