This park has everything! Swimming pool, ice skating rink, running track, playground, bocce ball court, baseball field, community center, benches, oh and of course plenty of grass and trees too. The volunteers also plant beautiful flowers here as well. Singing birds, squirrels, Ive spotted nests and once in a while some other interesting wildlife as well. One more thing that could enhance this park is a dog run!

We liked the farmers market a lot. Well organized, great selection: farm stalls, fish, eggs and meat, honey. The park is being redone and will be great next year.

There are so many cozy places in the park. Convenient shops - sunbeds, a picturesque lake, white and black ducks, beautiful bridges, a cozy gazebo reminiscent of oriental style, a luxurious restaurant, many places for children to play. Many memorable places. Oaks grow that are not one hundred years old. Wood instalations, shrubs in the form of elephants. The summer stage works. The park is clean.

This place was a dream!!!! If I could move here I would have never left!!!! The view is gorgeous!!!! I wish I could have never left! I LOVE this park and the community around it. So diverse and welcoming when to strangers they treat you like theyve known you forever. It was more than lovely

I had lived within 15-minute walk from this park for over 10 years and never knew of its existence. A $2.1M renovation plan has been recently approved by JC City Council and work is about to begin in the spring. Improvements include the classic original fountain in the center, new pavement, new lighting, new fencing, addition of 100+ new trees and shrubs, among other things.

This is a great park. As others have mentioned, it has great views of the city. There is a playground for children that is usually busy, and you can always find a few dogs getting walked. In the summer they have a great farmers market. I live nearby and find it to be safe at night. In the summer you regularly see police walking through. For as busy as this park is, you would think the city would do a better job maintaining it.

One of the hidden gems of JC. A goto place for me and my friends. The NYC night view is amazing. Sharing some in the review, but photos cant do justice to the 8k eye vision. Go see it for yourself! Has a citibike station which is a plus as we often bike there. Now go get going.. ️

This is an amazing small park with a great view of the NYC skyline. Very active artist community. Today, for example, there was a music festival (Vault Allure) on one end and a Puerto Rican celebration on the other. Theres also a farmers market and yoga in the park on summer weekends.

This is a nice park, but unfortunately i cant tKd my toddler to this park anymore, i went here about a week ago and there were this teenagers playing with some type of toy gun shooting some type of plastic fake bullets with their parents!!! Running back and forth on the slide tracks on top of smaller kids. I got so concern and left with my kid before i would had to come back home with my kid hurt because of some irresponsible people. Poor kid crying because we had to leave early,It is just sad.
