The grandkids love this water park. Watched a beautiful shepherd having so much fun in the water. It made every one watching smile and laugh! Great place for families.

Great Community Gathering Place that you can add it to Richmond. Not a lot of shade but hopefully that will come in time since this is only 2 years old

This downtown park is used for the farmers market, movie nights, outside yoga, and has a band shell for live performances. Only a few years old, plenty of parking, outside permanent ping pong table, tables and chairs, and water splash for kids on hot days.

Great gathering spot for the community. Catch the farmers market on Saturdays during the summer along with food truck Wednesdays. Splash around in the colorful pop up water fountain or catch an outdoor concert. Enjoy the Richmond Meltdown Festival in January. Wonderful edition to the community!

Theres a ton of potential for this plaza! The farmers market is pretty good, and Food Truck Wednesday brings in more food than is typically available in Richmond. Theres certainly room for growth, but I love that Richmond is trying out new things with this space.

Food trucks that are there every Wednesday are great! Atmosphere is clean and generally pleasant. Bathrooms are surprisingly clean! Little splash pad is nice for the kiddos. Wish the seating wasnt metal in direct sunlight, but otherwise its nice and seems to be a nice little spot.

This is a really nice, clean and pretty place to spend some time relaxing outside alone or with friends. Its a nice place to read a book you got from the library across the street or to do homework. Its also a great place to bring your kids in the summertime because of the many water spouts it has for them to play in. Or you can walk around and look at the flowers. Its just a really nice place.

My family and I went for Food Truck Wednesday which is held through the summer. There was also live music, green space to lounge on, and a small water feature for kids to play in. This is one of my favorite places to be outside in Richmond.

Love that Richmond has this space for the farmers market, the Tuesday twilight market, Wednesday food trucks, and other events. The food truck Wednesdays have pretty good options and more will be introduced I hope! It used to have live music too for the June/July period which was lovely!

Very nice...but very windy. Made keeping music under control (or even on our music stands) very difficult. The audience was good and enjoyed the music.

It is nice, but it looks out of place in the middle of the town. There is still about a third of the original parking lot that detracts from the overall look. The splash pad is nice, the area is nice on the weekend due to the Farmers Market.
