Great place, lots of outside activities and equipment, inside had a fairly big space for parties, which we had a baby shower there and came with the use of a full kitchen and round tables and chairs. Easily, a nice place for bigger functions.

Had lunch with a friend and noticed unsupervised young kids running around. As a inner city park there should be police just in case. We feed 2 youngsters they were hungry and no parental units around. But the park was clean and picked up no trash on the grass or walkways. Next tine we will bring more food. Bless there little hearts.

I came back to Des Moines, ia after 17 years alot has changed to MLK park, which I grew up in.. Eastside has changed of course, its crowded now but the park is what kepted things somewhat neutral.. it has things for adults and children both to enjoy either indoors & outdoors.. its beautiful though..
