Everything you need there. A wading pool, big slides, big swings (for every ages !!) Only bad side is that the water fountain doesn't work but I'm sure it will in summer

Located in the middle of a decent neighborhood. Large ballfields for any kinds of activity. Nice playground for kids and there is a wading pool in the summer time. A small basketball field available. Street parking should be fine most of the time as never see the field occupied according to my experience

Terrible, 60+ year old wading pool that is unattended by the attendant that sits around and reads mystery novels while the pool fills up with leaves and filth. Needs an updated water works play area like Beacon Hill's parks.

Great local park! Very nice playground and a big swing set, with a huge open play field for baseball and soccer.
