Attending an awesome event 4 the community! Vibe and scenery was great (food, music, people)! My only grip is the restroom facility. Water from outside, gathered in the restroom and the sink reminded me of junior high school (40 yrs ago). I find it sad, that across the water there are 2 stadiums and a yacht club, but the children of Ward 8 don't have access 2 what is rather basic. I'll visit the park again and I hope some administrator will make the necessary upgrades for the children of that community. Only 3 stars 🌟 becuz of the outdated restroom, it would have been 5 🌟

I went to check out the water 🌊 since clean water initiative support funding was pass to restore anacostia river in Northeast , Southeast , Northwest . The clean water Act is a federal congressional bill pass to restore water ways around military stations with access to rivers.. From my visit to the anacostia park southeast navy yard location , The river water 💦🌊 looks to be much more cleaner to me from my last visit & The river has no visible debris, plastics or dead fish floating around in the evening tide along the river base.

Born and raised in DC. This park has really grown throughout the years. Glad to be apart of this major change. This is the go to park for all events.

No swings, there is a skating rink with music, restroom is not clean, there is an area to cookout and have a party, but you need a park permit. You might even find a place to fish if you like to.

I always love visiting this park for a quick walk or to just get away and relax. They have a skating park, playground for the kids and plenty of cookout shelters and open space to set up your tents and grills. Always a vibe!

Very danger area. I don't suggest to come here alone or by subway train either. Homeless are around.

The community just scary. Not a park for tourist and no one was here.
