Public park nestled between buildings, sheltered away from the surrounding roads. Large sloping grassed area surrounded by trees and overlooked by the Sainte-Périne geriatric hospital. There are some small decorative gardens. The lawns are open for use including for ball games and picnicking. A gravelled amphitheatre is also popular for ball games. Children's play areas include a sandpit, climbing frames and riding toys for three separate age groups. The paved bike circuit is typically used by young cyclists, skaters and scooters. Dogs on leashes are allowed in certain areas and there is an informal off-leash dog play area. There are several picnic tables and fixed seating scattered around the park. Water fountains are available most of the year (as is the norm with most Parisian parks, water fountains are turned off during winter). Public toilets are outside the rue Mirabeau entrance. There is a park warden. A very popular destination for local families. Not recommended for jogging as to complete a circuit, you must pass through several small swinging gates. Venue for annual summer ball, as organised by the local council (Mairie du 16émé).
