Battery Lane Urban Park

In terms of the basketball court... the floor is messed up and is known to be always dusty. Another thing to mention is that one rim is higher than the other. There are also no lights to discourage teens from hanging out at the court doing whatever they want late at night. I should also mention that the taller rim is a little bit tilted. Regardless, people from high school to college to adults still come here to hoop. I will give a fair warning that if you do hoop at battery lane, expect a scratch or two after your games at this basketball court :D.

As for the tennis court, it seems to be always occupied, so i recommended timing it or sharing the court.

As for the playground, there are usually a lot of little kids with their parents. This could be good to keep your child in the company of the same age group or so. To add, the big trash bin and recycle bin is relatively close to the entrance of the playground.

As for the exercise station, it's still in good condition. The only thing I have to say is that it is next to some damp area, so the area is usually infested with mosquitoes. Not to mention, there's a big trash bin and recycling bin in here as well. If the trash stinks, the exercise station will also stink :D.

No, there are no restrooms!!! Someone get the county or something to install one.

You could potentially have a picnic at certain locations of this park.

Is park. Is small. Water here = yes

Clean, easy street parking, restaurants nearby. Great place to bring kids, highly recommend

Nice park. I don't know the neighborhood. it looks nice. Ran from NIH and did a little exercise in the rain. The only reason it got a four star was because I couldn't get a grip on the chin bars due to the rain.

Really fun park for kids who are old enough to climb safely. I took away a star because there were lots of mosquitoes and we all got chewed up pretty bad, and the footing in the playground is woodchips.

Really nice playground for a variety of age groups. A couple picnic tables and water fountains next to it. There's also a basketball and a tennis court nearby. Walking distance from the children's theatre down the street... Imagination Stage. The Italian market just down the street a short bit has the most amazing cannolis. It's the perfect place to go when you're downtown with the kiddos.

Good leg raise / stomach / ab workout
Quiet

It's a quiet playground accessible through the trail shade from trees isn't very big. But has everything a toddler enjoys. Friendly parents and safe neighborhood.
