This place looks nice from the street but it ends there. We took our family there to eat some carryout at the picnic benches. There was definitely multiple piles of what appeared to be human feces close by. Both me and one of my kids stepped in it. You could see undigested peanuts in it. After seeing that we got the hell out of there.

The Colorado Springs Classic Car Show was great. If youve never been, put it on your calender for next year. Lots of really cool cars, nice people and a good way to spend the day.

Review №18

The concrete they replaced the grass and trees with is a travesty and the park is more of an eyesore than it was when there were a couple of homeless people muling around. That isnt a park anymore, its a space that is only useful to people who just want to make money. There is no relaxing there now. There is no playing there. I cant get a coffee and sit on a bench and let my son run around in the grass anymore. This is not a park. Its disgusting.

I really enjoyed the Re-do or renovation of the park. Im a bit disappointed that they took out the gazebo, but everything else just works. My favorite time to visi is the Farmers Market on Saturdays during the summer. Such a variety of local venders to choose from. You cant beat it.

Small open city park that turns out to be really historic. Has a small cabin that has moved around the state. Also some memorials and other sculptures around the park. Sort of located at the edge of the shopping district.

Review №26

The city decided to get rid of anywhere where the homeless might hang out. Their so-called improvements to this park or simply a micro aggression against their own citizens. Too much cement.

They always have stuff going on down here. We went to territory days this year and had a blast. The homeless people are a problem, but I dont blame the park. They do a good job cleaning it up and securing it before events. I suggest using public transit or ride sharing, parking can be tough

Small but jammed with everything you need. Lots of fun events, bike lock up spot, picnic areas including a nice covered spot. A stage, everything, really quaint. Right by the library, a coffee shop, in the heart of Old Colorado Citys shopping strip. Favorite little hangout. Super close to ManitouUber Code: paolap860ueLyft Code: paola81120

The park itself is being rebuilt on its western half, but the pavilion and bathrooms are still there in the east side. I was there for the Old Colorado City Custom and Classic Car Show which was fantastic. Over 600 dream cars staged on 5 blocks of Colorado Blvd. Huge crowd and vendors and everyone was fun and friendly. CSPD was there and did a good job, and the event was well organized. I had alot of fun.

This a lovely little park in Old Colorado City. There are events held here weekly through the summer. Parking is as much a problem here as anywhere else in the area. The only blemish on this park is the unmanaged homeless problem. The Pagoda here always houses several homeless people.
