Park is extensive, and nicely enclosed by trees; allows for toddlers to run along a path but along a busy street..

A little difficult to find parking because this is the mission, but more importantly it's a busy street with a lot of moving traffic

The only thing hard about this park is that the parking is tough and you have to cross a busy street if you’re not able to find parking along the park. Otherwise there is a cute little train structure for those who are train obsessed, and various areas of the playground for different ages—possibly one of the few playgrounds in the city that actually support that. This is definitely an extensive playground.
