A playground for young and old alike. I go there on my day off during mid morning for exercise. Nice to see a variety of ppl doing a variety of activities.

This used to be my childhood playground. It is much different now. The rubber floor mats are very worn and can be slippery. My kids couldn't run as fast as he wanted to on it. This park has a public pool that was not yet operational when I went in mid June.
Nice clean park in woodside with $20 yoga on Sundays, a running track, pool and so much more. Love this park.
Nice & big. This park has it all. There's alot of families with children living in this area so it's convenient.
I work near the area and was very pleased to find this little park where I can just come here to walk for a bit. I can't wait for spring/summer to come here to eat my lunch or just walk
Not all that impressive, but hey, when you’re getting some fresh air after living couped up in one of these surrounding matchbox Woodside apartments with a bong-smoking room mate, this small parklet must seem like Yosemite National Reserve! Little confusing that this place is also identified as Lawrence Virgilio park, but he was probably the area’s city councilman who grafted this park into existence.
I have an electric bike in the appearance of a scooter, I decided to as the balance bike for kids did the same with my electric bike to approach the pool since this was a distant memory as I used to visit it when I lived in the neighborhood in my youth. I encountered a hostile person been dressed as a New York Police officer, she was rude and anyone approaching you with a gun telling you that you can't do certain things isn't really a challenge so I was Alamed to say anything further. My suggestion to the New York State Department and or Cities, not to have police interests in our parks since their presence is known for the emergence of criminals and of their activities. Let's keep our places to enjoy our parks in a safe manner without the sort. Otherwise the pool pretty much remains the same. However found out you'd have to be accompanied by a child of a certain height in order to gain access to pool. Also the playground area for children and park itself needs to be modernized.
