Reviews
A real swimming pool not the kind of pool you see at the gym where people think it’s a bathtub. It’s a real genuine lap pool and it’s so clean. You feel like jumping in.
This facility is on par with any similar facility in the continental United States. That is any Parks and Recreation facility within any State's borders and the amenities associated within that particular facility. The amenities associated with Gibson Park equate many facilities not only on this continent, they also quite likely exceed others internationally! Where else do you find a facility that has an Olympic regulation/competition pool; a regulation football (artificial turf) field; a regulation baseball (diamond) field; containing grandstands, scoreboard, goal posts, and an official 'press/coordinators' box? Also the facility contains bathrooms with showers, a contemporary weight room, and a gym that you may get a chance to see a myriad of NBA players in pick-up games. All this at Gibson Park and thank you very much to Alonzo Mourning. A benefactor whom has adopted the community (Overtown/Miami) and consistently puts work in personally. The adjoining facility, Overtown Youth Center, is currently being upgraded by Dwight Stephenson Construction. He is of course the former center for the Miami Dolphins. World Class Facility. Visit when the opportunity presents itself. JE.
